Answer:

D). To indicate that Twain needed money in order to eat .

Explanation:

Idioms are the most commonly employed figurative device to propose a sharp and rich language that conveys a meaning distinct from the literal meaning of the words presented. Such a device assists to present a more elaborate and spicier description offering an indirect meaning.

As per the question, the given idiom 'I..........book' functions to indicate that 'Twain required money to eat'. Twain was a realist who aimed to portray the real-life subjects with a touch of subtle elements. In this excerpt from his "I Sell a Dog", he intends to hint that he needed money for 'bread and butter'(eat). Thus, <u>option D</u> is the correct answer.

Which of these sentences uses quotation marks correctly?
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

A is wrong because it has a period after, <em>down</em> when it should be a comma.  The comma signals that that part of the sentence is what he is saying.  He is also capitalized when it should be lower case.  B is wrong because it has nothing after, <em>down</em> and nothing after <em>said</em>.  C is wrong because again, there's nothing after <em>down.</em>  The part option C did get right is the comma after said.  D has all the commas in the right places and all the words are capitalized when they're supposed to.

write a dialogue between you and your friend expressing agreement or disagreement on photography is an expensive hobby​
Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

Person A: Person B, photography is clearly a rather expensive hobby.

Person B: How come, Person A? Photography is a wonderful hobby because it isn't expensive.

Person A: For one, to take good, high-quality photos, you need a proper camera which can range from at least $900 to over one thousand. And if photography is your hobby, you most likely would want to aim for the quality of professional photographers, hence being forced to buy a thousand dollar camera instead of using your phone.

Person B: Exactly, Person A. Albeit, that may be expensive, but it's a hobby like you said. We're not aiming for a professionally taken photo, simply a good quality one. We can get that with the latest phones which are focusing on better camera range, magnification, filters, and quality in general.

Person A: And did you bother to check how much the average phone costs in comparison to a camera. The iPhone 12 is almost $999 alone cutting it extremely close to the price of a simple camera. And if we abide by what you said, then having the latest iPhone -- in this case, the iPhone 12 Pro Max -- ensures that we have the best camera coming in at almost the same price as a professional camera.

Person B: Well, an iPhone also has multiple other features, though. On top of a great quality camera, the phone will provide a person with apps, extra storage, custom wallpaper, etc. It's reasonable to charge more for the phone, but a legitimate camera only gives you a camera lens, maybe filters, a few options, and buttons, and that's it. It's evidently normal to charge the same amount as a camera for a high standard phone, proving that it's not expensive.

Person A: One thousand dollars just to take a couple of pictures is not expensive?

Person B: No, it's not. If you use an iPhone, you get the pictures and an added bonus of extra things, too, hence proving that photography is not an expensive hobby.

Person A: But I believe that it is an expensive hobby. Both of us stated incredibly strong points, don't you think?

Person B: Yes, I suppose so. Whether or not photography is an expensive hobby depends on whom is answering the question.
