paragraphs?

Answer:

The correct answer is Alvarez explains that, although her parents reacted differently to the stress they endured, both became silent about the dictatorship.

Explanation:

This question is incomplete. Here are the excerpt and the options missing:

My mother, especially, lived in terror of the consequences of living as free citizens. In New York City, before Trujillo was killed, Dominican exiles gathered around the young revolutionary Juan Bosch planning an invasion of the Island. Every time my father attended these meetings, my mother would get hysterical. If the SIM found out about my father's activities, family members remaining behind were likely to be in danger. Even our own family in New York could suffer consequences. Five years earlier, in 1955, Galindez, an exile anti-Trujillo teaching at Columbia University, had disappeared from a New York subway. The same thing could happen to us.

I don't know if my father complied or just got too busy trying to make a living in this country. But after a few months of hotheaded attendance, he dropped out of these political activities and his silence deepened.

Which statement best analyzes how the author develops the central idea across the paragraphs?

Alvarez explains that her parents often disagreed about how to react to the dictatorship now that they were living in a free country

Alvarez explains how her father became heavily involved in anti-Trujillo activities, but soon became too busy to participate in them.

Alvarez explains how her mother eventually convinced her father to stop attending political meetings because of the danger.

Alvarez explains that, although her parents reacted differently to the stress they endured, both became silent about the dictatorship.

 As the excerpt clearly says: <em>"his silence deepened." </em>

Alvarez tells the horrible things that happened because of the dictatorship, and even that he could happen to her parents and her family.

However, despite the stress of not knowing what would happen to their lives, both parents were silent about the dictatorship.

Read the following sentence: (The author writes about the United States thoughtfully.) How would you rewrite the sentence using
Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

What the author writes about thoughtfully are the United States.

Explanation:

Noun clauses are dependent (also called subordinate) clauses that act as nouns. Accordingly, they can function as the subjects, direct and indirect objects, predicate nominatives, and objects of a preposition of sentences, just like nouns. They begin with words such as <em>how, that, what, whatever, when, where, whether, which, whichever, who, whoever, whom, whomever, </em>and<em> why, </em>which makes them easier to recognize.

The given sentence can be rewritten by introducing a noun clause related to the object (the United States): <em>What the author writes about thoughtfully are the United States.</em>

For what does Reverend Parris condemn his niece, Abigail?
Tju [1.3M]

He convicted her of dancing in the forest at night with other girls.

We can arrive at this answer because:

  • Reverend Parris is a very traditional man who wants to keep his and his family appearances up to society's standards.
  • This includes keeping to puritanical concepts and moving away from everything that religion deems wrong. That was essential to his reputation.
  • Dancing in the forest at night was considered incorrect as it referred to pagan cults and activities associated with witchcraft.
  • For that reason, when Reverend Parris found out that his niece was dancing the night away in the forest, he reprimanded her strongly.

He did this because his niece could be associated with witchcraft and that would cause his reputation to be damaged.
