Answer:
She is blind because of her past experiences as a trapeze artist.
Explanation:
For the first question, item D is correct because you'll need to place a comma before and after parenthetical elements: "<span>The beach, which closes after Labor Day, has white sand."
For the second question, item D is correct because commas are only needed for a series of three or more elements; thus, no commas are needed: "</span><span>I bought a beautiful pitcher and eight glasses."
For the third question, there are no commas needed; thus, item A is the correct sentence: "</span><span>The music made me sleepy."
</span><span>
For the fourth question, item C is the correct response because commas are needed after subordinate clauses that begin a sentence: "</span><span>As the band marched across the field, the crowd cheered."
</span>
For the fifth question, item D is the correct response because in order to keep from having a run-on sentence a comma is always needed before a conjunction that is connecting two complete sentences: "<span>He works long hours, yet he keeps up with his studies."</span>
Answer: C. Bottling up one's feelings leads to resentment and even violence
Explanation:
This is based on the poem,<em> A Poison Tree </em>by<em> William Blake</em>. In it the speaker describes how they were angry with their friend and told them about it which led to the anger dissipating. The same person became angry with a foe and did not tell the foe which led to the anger increasing every day.
It then got to the point where the speaker confronted the foe and ended up either killing or injuring the foe as the foe was lying on the ground at the end of the poem. This shows that one should not bottle up their feelings especially negative ones as they can grow and lead to resentment and sometimes violence.
