Answer:

D). Rapacity and debauch.

Explanation:

Word-choice always play a vital role in conveying the intended message effectively to the audience and elicit desired response and feelings from them. It makes the idea more clear and meaningful.

In the given passage, the words 'rapacity and debauch' conveys the author's contempt towards railway corporations. These <u>words reflect that how does the author adopt a critiquing tone by reflecting how they defy law to curtail their 'greed and avarice'(rapacity) through 'morally corrupt'(debauch) politics</u> and 'crimes' for which they are never found guilty. Therefore, <u>option D</u> is the correct answer.

Montano1993 [528]

The correct answers are:

  1. The man whose house we stayed in is my uncle.
  2. The guy who sold me my car is a crook.
  3. Which pen did he give you? The blue one.
  4. ..., whose ball I found. (Clearly, there is a mistake at the beginning of the sentence but the context helps to identify the correct relative pronoun.)
  5. His last book, which I didn't read, was very successful.
  6. I don't know which way to go.
  7. Which of the Beatle's album is your favourite?

<u>Who, which and whose are relative pronouns. </u>

  • Who only refers to people. It is used in 2 because it refers to <em>"The guy"</em>
  • Whose refers to people or things. It is used in 1 because it refers to <em>"the man"</em>. The <em>"house"</em> belongs to <em>"the man"</em>. In sentence 4, <em>"whose" </em>indicates that the <em>"ball"</em> belongs to somebody.
  • Which refers to objects and animals. It refers to the "pen" in sentence 3, to <em>"his last book"</em> in sentence 5 and to <em>"the Beatle's album"</em> in 7.
