Answer:

"As she laughed to herself" is a dependent clause, meaning it cannot stand alone. It needs to be added to an independent clause to be considered a sentence. By adding it to sentence 5, it modifies how Jenna reacted to the situation. There are two ways to add a dependent clause to an independent clause. When you add the dependent clause to the end of the independent clause, like the sentence in the correct answer choice, you do not need a comma to separate the clauses. The word "as" shows the separation in clauses. You can also put the dependent clause before the independent clause and separate them with a comma.

In paragraph 11, What difficulty does Miller describe when he writes, “like trying to pick one’s teeth with a ball of wool: I la
stira [4]

Answer:

The difficulty faced by Miller while writing 'The Crucible' was that he lacked the quality to describe mildly the environment of witchcraft trial and relate it to the Communist trials.

Explanation:

'Why I Wrote The Crucible: An Artist's Answer to Politics' is an essay written by Arthur Miller. The essay was written with a purpose to bring to notice the reason why Miller penned down play 'The Crucible' in the face of Communists trials.

In paragraph 11, Miller states that during the time of Communist trials, many writers were becoming so imaginable like McCarthy and Miller that they presented the situation through their writings and plays.

<u>When Miller states, that for him writing about witchcraft trials at the time of Communists trials was an act that lacks the tool. Miller states that he lacked the tool of presenting and relating both the trials mildly so that he may not present himself as a Communist party or non-Communist party.</u>
