1 answer:
nadezda [96]3 years ago
6 0

Answer: Barbara Bush focused much of her energy on a cause near to her heart: literacy.

Explanation: In the first two options, the colon is being misused because it is fragmenting essential elements of a same clause (direct object "much of her energy" from complement "on a cause..." / prepositional phrase "on a cause" from prepositional phrase "near to her heart" modifying it.) In the third option, the comma should not be used to introduce the one-item list "literacy."

Use context clues to determine the underlined word. Explain what strategy you used to determine the meaning of the word. Mrs. Mi
Alexandra [31]

Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:

Use context clues to determine the underlined word. Explain what strategy you used to determine the meaning of the word. Mrs. Milburn <u>admonished</u> the students who did not turn in their multimedia presentations. She told them they had until tomorrow morning to complete the presentations or else the students would have to go to detention.

Answer:

The word "admonished" as used in the above text means "to advise".

Explanation:

To get to the meaning of the word "admonished," I literally followed the context clues, that is, I read the whole text and realized that the password Milburn was giving a warning to the students, she was informing about their multimedia presentations. Thus, in the context of the text, I realized that the word "admonished" was related to "warn," "inform." After that conclusion, I went to get the meaning of the word in a dictionary and saw that I was correct.

In the short story, "The Cask of Amontillado," the reader is never told what the exact insult was that caused Montresor to seek
azamat

This is what happens before the story begins in "The Cask of Amontillado", according to my imagination:

Fortunato had always been an arrogant man who loved to laugh at his friends' imperfections or mistakes in general. When Montresor first met him, he was amazed at how clever and generous that man seemed to be. However, such an impression quickly died out: Fortunato turned out to be a rude, unkind, bitter man. That was a huge disappointment for Montresor, who really treasured his friend, at least in the beginning of their friendship.

One day, the two friends were having a casual conversation, when suddenly Fortunato turned to Montresor and said to him: "I'm sure I'm better than you at anything; that's why you were so jealous whenever I came around that girl you fancied..." Montresor was shocked to hear that, to which he replied right away: "Jealous? What are you talking about?" Fortunato had a cynical smile on his face, and said next: "So you think I didn't notice how insecure you felt... Maybe you were afraid she would fall in love with me, not with you..." After hearing that, Montresor was oppressed with anger, and couldn't say a word since if he did so, he would probably burst out in tears of uncontrollable rage.

After having spent the following night in a state of agitated insomnia, Montresor had an idea: inviting Fortunato to go taste some wine in a place where no one would bother them and that would also be suitable for a sweet and irreversible revenge.
