Answer:

The answer is letter D. correct.

Explanation:

This selection contains no run-on sentences. Run-on sentences happen when we put together two independent clauses without connecting them with proper punctuation and introductory words. Independent clauses contain a subject and predicate and express a complete thought on their own, without depending on other clauses.

The only option where a run-on could happen would be letter B. We have two independent clauses - followed by dependent ones, but they don't really matter here -, "I was shocked to learn that  he had a hefty collection of hip hop saved on his MP3 player" and "I was shocked that he knew how to use the technology." However, they are properly connected with a semicolon and the adverb "furthermore". Therefore, we do not have a run-on. Options A and C would not allow for run-on's, since they do not present two independent clauses. The best option is letter d. Correct.

Read the following sentences from the passage.

B. Consequently.

The transitional word that best fills the blank is “consequently.”  When we look at the excerpt from the passage you provided, we can see two sentences. The second sentence seems to be a result of the first sentence. With that in mind, of the possible transitional words, we need to find the word that most closely means “as a result” as this will give us the best transition to use. The word that means “as a result” (even though it has a negative connotation) is “consequently.”

What is the subject of the "Equal Pay Bill" letter by James Green?
Montano1993 [528]

I would chose B.


The Equal Pay Act requires that men and women in the same workplace be given equal pay for equal work. The jobs need not be identical, but they must be substantially equal. Job content (not job titles) determines whether jobs are substantially equal.
