Answer:

What is the effect? Carson begins "A Fable for Tomorrow" with imagery rather than exposition in order to represent events in ways that the reader could relate to and understand better. ... In the beginning of "A Fable for Tomorrow," the tone can be described as descriptive.

Which evidence best supports the conclusion that the Grimms’ fairy tales were not meant for children? Check all that apply.
Andrei [34K]

The Grimm´s fairy tales have often been told to children of our time as bedtime stories and have also been used to produce movies that are known and cherished by many. For many years people believed that these were tender and great stories of love, heroism, selflessness and learning. However, in recent years new studies have found that in fact, the original Grimms´ fairy tales were really dark and not for young audiences as their purpose was really to capture in writing the tales and stories that had been told in Europe for centuries. It has been learned that after almost six editions the brothers Grimm, two German-born siblings, decided to alter the stories they had originally compiled and re-wrote them so that they would be acceptable for 19th century religious puritans in Europe and it is the stories that came after the seventh edition the ones we know and love today. As said before, the Grimms´ purpose was to entertain the masses, but originally, they wanted to just capture the stories as they were told verbally by people in Europe. Thus, after analysing the stories, it was found that they protrayed brutality against children and adults and the conflicts that arose throuhout time in Europe and the harsdhips of European living. This is why, the correct answers would be B, C and E.

Answer:

It was a rainy day but, Joan and I had planned a trip. Joan wanted to go to the beach for a swim. I wasn't sure if we should go.

"I think we should wait a little longer, at least until the rain shows some signs of slowing down," I suggested.

"We can't swim without getting wet anyway," replied Joan, questioning my choice of swimsuit, the one my mom had bought at a secondhand store.

Explanation:

The best option to complete the parts where punctuation is missing is a comma.

1. It was a rainy day, but Joan and I had... --> commas are placed before the conjunction joining two independent clauses, as is the case here.

2. "I think we should wait a little longer, at least until... --> this type of usage is commonly justified as avoiding confusion. The way we read the sentence without the comma changes, and can cause confusion.

3. questioning my choice of swimsuit, the one my mom had bought... --> commas are used before phrases or clauses that somehow offer an explanation or further information about something previously mentioned. In this case, the speaker is offering further information about the swimsuit.

Note: For case 3, I believe a dash is also an option, since it can come before an explanation or further information as well. Still, a comma is usually preferred.
