Answer:

third main point:  Love Equals Chocolate

Mixed together, they represent love and chocolate. The brain's connection to the heart may not be entirely physical when it comes to love. In women, chocolate is craved more frequently than in men. For both birthday and Valentine's Day, chocolate is often given to women. In our culture, chocolate is viewed as a gift of romance. You will only find this kind of food outside of the day-to-day, it is for special occasions, and especially appealing to women. In addition, women enjoy chocolate because it conveys love, care, and pampering in a unique way.

Explanation:

This study has shown that those who eat chocolate tend to produce their own natural opiates in their brains, which soothe nerves and make them feel good. After muting the receptors that detect opioids, the chocolate cravings diminished.

Sometimes people say silly things they do not intend to be mean! This option correctly splits the independent clause in a complete sentence by adding an exclamation point at the end to indicate the speaker's tone. So, the correct option is C.

A sentence is a semantically complete unit of speech composed of one or more words that expresses an entire thought, idea, or message. It usually has a subject and a predicate and might be a statement, an inquiry, an order, or an exclamation.

A set of words must meet specific grammatical conditions in order to be termed a sentence. A subject (the person, place, thing, or idea about which the sentence is about) and a predication (the part of the sentence that indicates what the subject does or what is being done to the subject) are examples of these. A phrase must additionally possess a logical structure and express a complete notion on its own.

Therefore, the correct option is C.

Identify the choice that corrects this run-on sentence.

Answer:

Verbs (in order): believe, yawn, feel, knows, stretches, breathe, rushes, wakes, try, stop, feels, stretching, feels

Adverbs (in order): widely, deeply, thoroughly.

Explanation:

Verbs are action words, meaning a word that someone can be doing like "playing" or "slept."

Adverbs are words used to describe action words, like "slowly" or "loudly."

Some adverbs are repeated throughout the passage so make sure to highlight all of them.

Be careful when choosing which words are adverbs. Some may look like adverbs, but they are actually adjectives, which describe a noun and not a verb. As a hint, most adverbs end with "-ly" as you can see by "widely," "deeply," and "thoroughly."

You can add your own adverbs by finding any of the verbs we found and describing them in anyway you feel suits it best. For example, the sentence:

"When you try to stop a yawn, it feels unsatisfying."

You can add several adverbs to describe the verbs "try" or "stop." Since the verb "feels" already has an adverb, I'd recommend not adding another one.

"When you try to completely stop a yawn, it feels unsatisfying."

"Completely" is the adverb I chose to describe the verb "stop" in this sentence. Another example:

"When you physically try to stop a yawn, it feels unsatisfying."

Now the adverb "physically" is used to describe the verb "try." There are many different options so feel free to be as creative as possible! Just make sure it makes sense with the verb you are describing. A bad example is "slowly sleeping" because there is no such thing as sleeping in a slow manner. A good example is "waking up slowly" because this is actually possible and can be imagined.

Jupiter has just under 70 documented moons, Jupiter four largest of which are the Galilean moons Io, Callisto, Ganymede, and Europa.

Cloud top temperatures are thought to be around -280 degrees Fahrenheit. Jupiter's temperature is -238 degrees Fahrenheit on average.

Jupiter's stripes and significant red patches are well-known. In 1996, the Galileo spacecraft captured this image of Jupiter's Great Red Spot. The Galilean satellites, which are the four largest moons of Jupiter (Io, Europa, Ganymede, and Callisto), were found in 1610 by Galileo Galilei.

Io, Callisto, Ganymede, and Europa are the four biggest of Jupiter's around 70 known moons, which are all Galilean moons. It is a hot globe with roiling volcanoes, boiling lava, and billowing clouds of poisonous sulfur; Callisto is an old, scarred body with an icy rock crust.

Answer:

Explanation:

The first American to receive the Nobel Prize for Literature (1930) was Sinclair Lewis. He wrote about nothing but social issues. The 1920s was his golden era.

The two I'm most familiar with is the two I'll write about. The first was Dodsworth, which is perhaps his masterpiece.

It is the story of a rich industrialist who decides to give it all up and live in Europe. His wife was the real meat of the book; it is her life that bears the pointed satire of the book. Lewis was not enamored with everything American and she was what he despised most. She was frivolous, wasteful, cruel, but she had a hold on Dodsworth. And that is the point of the book. Lewis painted her the way he did because he was trying to awaken America into being more useful, more dedicated and less unthinking than they were in the 20s. It's a dark novel, very realistic in its contents, and not too overly hopeful that things would improve. Still in spite of her, he hoped. Lest you think that Lewis had his knife sharpened on women's hide, the woman Dodsworth eventually falls is everything his wife is not.

The second book I'll talk about is Babbitt. George Babbitt was the embodiment of another trait Lewis was not fond of. He hated unthinking  hypocrisy and George was both. He was a hypocrite and unthinking. He was a likable buffoon (that's my interpretation -- it certainly was not what Lewis thought) who got along by agreeing with everyone -- not realizing what he was doing at all. The book actually takes Babbitt apart by mocking his lack of anything that resembled centrality or intelligence. He had no real political will. He opposed everything that those in power had to say, particularly the clergy who were themselves taken apart in Elmer Gantry.

A very old but astonishingly good movie still about Elmer Gantry was made in 1960 and if you live in a mid sized city they likely have it. It shows Gantry at his best/worst. Dodsworth is also a film and it too is a masterpiece. Babbitt has his own film but he is much slimier in Elmer. Babbitt's film is much older than 1960. It's too bad he only had a cameo part.

I've not covered Gantry, because some people are very sensitive about how Religion is treated. And I add this caution: if you are sensitive to how religion is written about, then don't watch Gantry. Lewis shows no mercy. The film is much kinder and enough of Gantry shines though that we tend not to like him. His charm does nothing for him.

The films

Dodsworth and Elmer Gantry.
