Answer:

1st sentence is correct

4th sentence is correct

Explanation:

1st sentence :

Aunt Betsy somehow made it to her thirtieth birthday without changing a lightbulb; in fact, she didn't even know what one looked like.

This sentence is correct because here two similar sentences are connected by a semi colon.

2nd sentence :

Murphy's law essentially states this: Anything that can go wrong will go wrong.

This sentence is wrong because after semi colon the sentence is stared with a capital letter, it should be small letter.

3rd sentence :

She said; "Ouch!"

This sentence is wrong because comma should be used in place of semi colon.

4th sentence :

The team's problems centered in three positions: Jen Layland, first base; Debbie Meyer, catcher; and Maggie Smith, left field.

This sentence is correct because here three items or three terms are separated by a semi colon which are commas are used to show the relation of the three terms.

5th sentence :

For a bad day to happen, three elements are required; a stubbed toe, a bad attitude, and one car key locked in a car.

This sentence is wrong because the line "three elements are required" should be followed by a colon instead of a semi colon.

Thus, sentences 1 and 4 are correct.

The act of giving instruction or important information

ycow [4]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Here we have a statement, not a question. It seems that you forgot to include the question.

However, in order to help you, we can say the following.

The act of giving instruction or important information can be understood as an order. To give orders with good grammar, you use the imperative mode

If you are referring to the proper way to give instructions as a leader or in the corporate world, you need to do it properly, respectfully, but in an energetic way to express authority. It is a command, expressed with respect, but a command that needs to be obeyed.

Read lines 85-86 from the poem "The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock" and answer the question. And I have seen the eternal Footma

nadezda [96]

Answer:

Gloomy and Decay

Explanation:

In this poem, T S Eliot presents disillusion and physical inertia of modern life. The eternal footman is someone who waits while holding the coats of visitors. But this footman may be doom or death and may be the giver may nor return. Hence, the footman snickers, which is a half-suppressed, scornful laugh, rather than a normal laugh since he knows the person whom coat he is holding may not return back as in the case of a visitor who enters a building for entertainment or work.
