One naight, on my way home from school my bus broke down as we came to a village, so the bus driver got us a sub bus while we stayed in the tavern with this lady named Esmeralda who fed us mac and cheese. Soon after the sun had completely set and we realized the bus wasn't coming, so the bus driver arranged for us to stay at the Hotel across the street from the tavern. The next day at around noon, the bus had finally arrived, but by that time we'd missed half the school day. Instead of making us go back to school in the same clothes we wore yesterday, the principal granted us all schoolleave to go home early for the day... but the bus broke down again.
I would answer with the third option, as she does mention that she wouldn't place it in the dystopian genre, but there is no harsh criticism to suggest that she did not enjoy the book.
I hope this helps!
Answer:
Number 4 would be the best answer.
Explanation:
Passing through each option, from a deductible, logical perspective:
- Number 3 cannot be concluded from the excerpt given.
- Number 1 could maybe be a possible answer, but can be dropped aside due to the fact that the speaker implies a certain level of pride to his statement, when he says that he has made the railroad 'race against time'. Hence, he would probably still want to keep building them!
- Number 2 is the one that is maybe best confused. As the conclusion 'Now it's done!' could very much either mean that all railroads have been completed, or that he hasn't found work anymore. This can be clarified by considering that he's talking about <em>a </em><em>railroad, </em>and that his whole speech has a certain emotional, almost poethical appeal to it. So the main point here isn't the general need for railroads, but rather the speaker's feelings and aflictions.
Answer:
Use a subordinating conjunction to connect it to an independent clause.
Explanation:
A <em>dependent clause </em>are phrases that answer <em>wh-</em> questions such as when something happened, where, and why as well as how and to what degree.
For example:
"When it is hot outside,..."
"When you are at their house,.."
"As you approach Publix,..."
<em>Subordinating Conjunctions</em> connect these phrases to independent clauses, or phrases that have complete a full thought.
Examples:
"When"
"Although"
"While"
"Whenever"
Once put together you get full sentences like:
"<em>When</em> it is cold outside, put on a jacket."
"Drive on 3rd street <em>till</em> you reach her home."
