Answer:

Meaninglessness

Explanation:

Existentialism was a philosophic and literary movement that began in the mid of 19th century, whose approach was the individual existence, their experiences, freedom, and choices. According to this movement, humans define their own meaning and essence thorough his life, their experiences, choices, etc., that is to say, by merely embracing existence in this absurd and apparently meaningless world, which has no explanation of being

Answer:

The question is incomplete, here is the complete question:

Indicate whether the underlined words or groups of words need capital or lower case letters by selecting the best choice. If an underlined section is correct, select "No change."

My husband, who is at home with the flu, asked me to pick up a box of <u>kleenex tissues, a bottle of extra strength tylenol</u>, and a jug of orange juice from the supermarket.

A. kleenex tissues, a bottle of extra strength Tylenol

B. kleenex tissues, a bottle of Extra Strength Tylenol

C. Kleenex tissues, a bottle of Extra Strength Tylenol

D. No change

The correct answer is; Kleenex tissues, a bottle of Extra Strength Tylenol (C)

Explanation:

There are certain rules applied when suing capital letters, and in our example the rule being tested here is the rule that, when writing titles of movies, publications, books or other products, the first letters of all large words must be capitalized, while small words such as is, an, a to on etc, are not capitalized, unless they are the first or the last words in the title.

in our example, Kleenex is a title or the name of a specific brand of tissue, hence it is capitalized, while tissue is not a proper noun so it is not capitalized, "Extra Strength Tylenol" are also capitalized because it is a brand name or title for a specific type of Tylenol (Acetaminophen, which is also a proper noun). Another example is in the sentence: "I am going to the cinema to watch Dragon and Kings". Notice that "Dragon" is capitalized at its first letter, the "a" in "and" is not capitalized even though it is part of the title, while the "k" in "Kings" is also capitalized.

There are other rules of capitalization in English language, I will list them out and you can do further study on them:

1. the first letter is a quotation is always capitalized as long as the quotation is a complete sentence

2. proper nouns are capitalized

3. directions are capitalized only when they refer to specific locations e.g North Carolina

5. two or more sentences following a colon are capitalized

6. the first letter or a salutation is capitalized. Example Dear Tommy.

mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

"In the years just after the Empire State Building was built, there were not enough renters to fill the building due to the Depression. However, there were plenty of visitors, both tourists and celebrities. They came to marvel at the building's height and go up to the observation tower. The Empire State Building quickly became a favorite place to visit in New York."

Explanation:

To paraphrase a text means using the same meaning as the text, but using different words. In other words, we can say that paraphrasing is the ability to repeat information from one text, in another text, using different words and phrases.

In this case, among the options given in the question above, only one of them reaches the meaning of paraphrase. This option is: "In the years just after the Empire State Building was built, there were not enough renters to fill the building due to the Depression. However, there were plenty of visitors, both tourists and celebrities. They came to marvel at the building's height and go up to the observation tower. The Empire State Building quickly became a favorite place to visit in New York."
