"According to Dr. Brock at the Amazon Institute, capybaras have webbed feet for swimming and can even sleep underwater by keeping their nose just above the surface for breathing."

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The correctly punctuated quotation seems to be the first one:

According to Dr. Brock at the Amazon Institute, "capybaras have webbed feet for swimming and can even sleep underwater by keeping their nose just above the surface for breathing."

Explanation:

We can easily eliminate the last two options, since their use of quotation marks is completely wrong. Quotation marks are supposed to establish, so to speak, where the quote begins and where it ends. That is, they are supposed to show which words belong to the person being mentioned, separating them from the author's words. In the last two options, the marks are including words that were not said by Dr. Brock.

Now, when it comes to the first two options, we need to be careful because they are very similar. They are both using the quotation marks correctly. They also include the period before the last quotation mark, which is also correct. The difference between them seems to be only the capitalization of "Capybaras" in the second one. Such capitalization is unnecessary, which is why I believe the first option is the best choice.

Poetry _____. appeals to the reader's emotions tends to say a lot in a small space uses metaphors to make comparisons between unlike thing all of these

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is All of these.

Explanation:

Poetry appeals to the reader's emotions, tends to say a lot in a small space and uses metaphors to make comparisons between unlike thing.

Poetry is a literary genre that is characterized by being the most refined manifestation, through the word, of the feelings, emotions and reflections that human beings can express about beauty, love, life or death. As such, it can be composed in both verse and prose.

Formerly, poetry was written only in verses, governed by a set of rules on composition called meter.

However, modern poetry is characterized by the predominance of free verse, where the author has total freedom to arrange and organize the verses in the text, and seek their own rhythm, without ties of rhymes or metrics.

Answer:

Separate the entry from any other existing entry by using a new line or an indentation.

Explanation:

A diary entry can be anything.  Personally, if I were to write a diary entry, it would be a recount of something important from my day.  The content of the entry will create the form.

The use of a paragraph is simply a way to isolate or separate the ideas from within the entry.

Use the following excerpt from Boccaccio's The Decameron to answer the following question: "In the year of our Lord 1348, there happened at Florence, the finest city in all Italy a most terrible plague; which, whether owing to the influence of the planets, or that it was sent from God as a just punishment for our sins, had broken out some years before in the Levant (Middle East) and, after passing from place to place, and making incredible havoc all the way, had now reached the west… " Public Domain Based on the passage, how would Boccaccio likely feel about the actions of the flagellants, who warned Christians to repent?

Answers

This question is missing the options and is, therefore, incomplete. I've found the options online. They are the following:

Based on the passage, how would Boccaccio likely feel about the actions of the flagellants, who warned Christians to repent?

A. He would find their actions sinful because they accused God.

B. He would find their actions appropriate because the Church was corrupt.

C. He would find their actions appropriate because he believed human sin may have caused the plague.

D. He would find their actions inappropriate because he was certain the planets caused the plague.

Answer:

Boccaccio would probably feel the following:

C. He would find their actions appropriate because he believed human sin may have caused the plague.

Explanation:

Boccaccio does speak of the planets' influence causing the plague. However, that is not the only reason he deems possible. According to him, the plague could have very well been caused by sin. In that case, it would be a punishment sent by God. Therefore, if the plague was caused by sin, it made perfect sense to repent, just as was advocated by the flagellants. Boccaccio would, thus, most likely agree with them. Note: flagellants believe in repenting by hurting oneself, usually whipping one's own flesh.

This question is incomplete, missing the options. I've found the complete question online. It is the following:

CASSIUS:

Brutus, I do observe you now of late.

I have not from your eyes that gentleness

And show of love as I was wont to have.

Which statement summarizes this excerpt best?

A.Cassius has recently become angrier with Brutus and is not willing to be the loving brother-in-law and friend he has always been.

B.Cassius has noticed that lately Brutus seems to be angry with him instead of being the loving brother-in-law and friend he has always been.

C.Brutus has noticed that Cassius seems to be angry with him, but Cassius denies that his feelings for Brutus have changed.

D.Cassius is trying to convince Brutus that they are better friends than they really are in an effort to get closer to Caesar.

The best summary for the excerpt is:

B.Cassius has noticed that lately Brutus seems to be angry with him instead of being the loving brother-in-law and friend he has always been.

Explanation:

Brutus, I do observe you now of late.

I have not from your eyes that gentleness

And show of love as I was wont to have.

The lines above mean Cassius has been watching Brutus's behavior. He has noticed that, lately, Brutus is not gentle and loving towards him. Brutus's behavior has clearly changed.

You bear too stubborn and too strange a hand

Over your friend that loves you.

Brutus seems angry, impatient, even stubborn when dealing with Cassius. Before, he used to be more willing to listen and yield; he used to be easier to deal with. He is no longer the friend and brother-in-law he used to be.
