The following sentence may have an ERROR in the use of commas. If it does, choose the revision that corrects the error. If it do
antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

Even though the possible options for revisions were not posted in your question, I believe the best way to correct the sentence is:

Because they were relieved to have survived the arduous journey along the rugged frontier, many settlers were known to kiss the ground upon finally arriving at their destination.

Explanation:

The original sentence did not present a comma between the dependent clause and the independent one. That would have been right if the dependent clause had come after the independent one. That would have been the natural structural order for the sentence. However, that is not the case. The sentence began with the dependent clause - which can be identified by the subordinating conjunction "because". While the normal structure would be "A happened because of B", what we have in this sentence is "because of B, A happened". When we invert the sequence, we should use a comma to separate the clauses. For that reason, the best way to correct the sentence is by adding a comma between the words "frontier" and "many":

Because they were relieved to have survived the arduous journey along the rugged frontier, many settlers were known to kiss the ground upon finally arriving at their destination.

Your response should include (1) one text evidence from the selection Raymond’s Run By:Toni Cade Bambara
mina [271]

The plot of "Raymond's Run" revolves around Hazel, the protagonist, who needs to win a race and wants to train her older brother who has health problems.

Based on this we can say that:

  • The point of view is in the first person since Hazel is the one who narrates the story.
  • The setting is Harlem, New York.
  • The conflict is external and can be thought of as Character versus character.

<h3>What kind of conflict is this?</h3>

External conflict does not establish itself in the character's mind and establishes an element outside that character's body to generate the conflict.

In "Raymond's Run" the conflict is external and is of the Character versus Character type because the conflict is established between Hazel and Gretchen who is Hazel's main opponent in the race and the person she needs to defeat.
