What I got was : basically, 'titan' in the word titanic means gigantic. huge. titans in Greek mythology were strong, powerful, immortal, and god-like deities, and they were brought down by the Gods. That is the greek mythology that the word 'Titanic' is derived from.
What I would consider ironic and quite frankly, interesting, is the fact that the Titanic (ship) was large and strong—and it sunk, never to be seen ever again, it's glory reduced to nothingness. And the same goes for the titans : they were glorious, arrogant, and huge, and even then they were sunk, or rather, lowered by the Gods of Greek Mythology.
An effective way to combine both sentences is introducing a relative clause:
In 1961, Congress passed a resolution which recognized Samuel Wilson as the original Uncle Sam.
A relative clause relates a main clause “In 1961, Congress passed a resolution” with a dependant clause “recognized Samuel Wilson as the original Uncle Sam.” The aim is to avoid repetition, connect ideas and make the text flow.
The following methods are ways to correct a run-on sentence:
> Placing a semicolon between the complete sentences
> Adding a conjunction between the complete sentences
> Putting a comma in between
Therefore, the correct answer is: Option C. You should not insert a period between the complete sentences.
C. His hours are long and busy.
Linking verbs are do not express action. It simply links the subject of the verb to the additional information about the subject.
In the above sentence, ARE is the linking verb. It does not express any action. Its subject is his hours. It connects the additional information long and busy to the subject his hours.
Verbs in other choices pays, works, and has walked are all action verbs. It does not connect the subject to additional information about the subject. Instead, the verb shows the subject doing the action (he works, he has walked) or the subject receiving the action (his boss pays him).
