Answer:

According to structure, this sentence is a COMPLEX SENTENCE.

According to function, this sentence is a DECLARATIVE SENTENCE.

Explanation:

This is a COMPLEX SENTENCE.

  • A complex sentence has one or more dependent clauses.

This is because the thought is complete. It has a subject and a predicate (the action or information about the subject). "The students are studying."

  • Due to the subordinating conjunctions, a dependent clause has both a subject and a predicate (before, although, since, when). "Because he is unprepared."

With the most votes, he garnered only 40% of the popular vote. It has one dependent clause and one independent clause.

  • Although he garnered the most votes,

He received around 40% of the vote.

This is a DECLARATIVE SENTENCE.

Statements are declarative. It's punctuated.

When a period finishes a declarative sentence, these criteria are met.

The correct answer to what do Bixby's expressions suggest about his character is the last option: He has a natural, highly witty sense of humor.

When Bixby says things like <em>"By the great Caesar's ghost"</em> or <em>"you don't know enough to pilot a cow down a lane"</em>, it becomes clear that he has a <em>funny, comical and somehow inventive character.</em> His expressions are <em>jokes or puns</em> that seem to be <em>natural</em>, they appear to be <em>common or usual in his speech</em> and to come intuitively. So, the correct answer to what the expressions suggest about Bixby's character is that <em>he has a natural, highly witty sense of humor.</em>

The correct answer couldn't be the first option, <em>"He has a large and somewhat imposing personality"</em> because there is <em>nothing imposing about the comments Bixby does</em>. He is, indeed, a little bit acid, but not at all imposing. On the contrary,<em> he asks for Moses' help and says that he believes him.</em> Therefore, the correct answer couldn't be "He has a large and somewhat imposing personality".

The correct answer couldn't be the second option, <em>"He does not get along well with any other people"</em>, because there is <em>nothing on his way of speaking which indicates that his jokes, puns or way of expressing himself are not well excepted by people.</em> On the contrary, he seems to be acid, humorous, <em>but also friendly.</em> Thus, the correct answer couldn't be "He does not get along well with any other people".

The correct answer couldn't be the third option, <em>"He is extremely well read and well educated"</em> because Bixby shows <em>no signs</em> of that. On the contrary, <em>when he speaks, his expressions are informal and conversational.</em> So, the correct answer couldn't be "He is extremely well read and well educated".

Read the passage from The Odyssey - Elpenor.
adell [148]

For Odysseus and his men, the loss of Helios, the sun, symbolizes a loss of C. Hope.

In poetry, light ( such as the sun, the moon, candles, stars) often symbolizes good, hope, and freedom.

In the lines <em>"Never the flaming  eye of Helios lights on those men  at morning, when he climbs the sky of stars, nor in descending earthward out of heaven"  </em>the reflected idea is that they do not see the sunrise or sunset anymore, thus they are eventually condemned to a total loss of light, that is to say, hope.

anzhelika [568]

Both conflicts are related to confusion over Gogol’s two names.

In the first excerpt it is about how Gogol has two names, Nikhil and Gogol. Gogol is a pet name used by his family while Nikhil is his "good name". Nikhil is his more formal name and should be the one used at school. However, since Gogol was put on his birth certificate, the school must register him using his legal name.
