Which of the following sentences uses semicolons correctly?
Answer:
A. Chris and Molly were delighted to see the whole family gathered in the living room; the group was waiting to congratulate the couple.

A semicolon is actually used to link/connect two independent clauses that are closely related in thought. The semicolon is used to connect two or more ideas or clauses which are equal in rank or position.
In the above sentence, the use of semicolon is correct because it joins two independent clauses together. These clauses share a close, logical connection.

Read this sentence from the story.
A few days later, I was sitting down with John, one of the executive editors of the newspaper chain, hearing all the daunting details of being a “cub reporter.”
Which earlier part of the story does this sentence refer to?
The narrator is not sure which kind of writer she wants to become.
The narrator interviews for a job for which she is not qualified.
The narrator has a long and challenging job search.
The narrator is panicking during her first day on the job.
The passage prior to the text: ⬇
I was in full-on panic mode. Here I was on my first day as an inexperienced reporter having to cover an important story with little guidance. I was starting to regret my decision to take the job. What was I doing here? I wasn’t a journalism major. I didn’t have a “beat.” I didn’t even know all the rules about dealing with sources and off-the-record information.
The previous spring, I’d taken up my boss on his offer and stayed at my part-time job through the summer after college. He gave me more hours, so I was making more money, but I didn’t yet have the responsibility of a “real” job. I’d been an English major and wanted to be a writer, though I had no idea what kind of writer. I’d taken the summer to think about things and prepare for a fall job search.
By the time I began the search for my first full-time job, the job market was in bad shape. During my first few months looking for a job, I sent out countless resumes and only had one interview. Unfortunately, I was very unqualified for the job at the time. Then a woman I worked with at my part-time job told me about a reporter position opening up at the newspaper chain where her daughter worked. Though I’d never thought about being a reporter, I figured it couldn’t hurt to go on the interview. In addition to interview experience, the opportunity meant I was officially networking. All the job search materials I’d read stressed the importance of networking in finding a job.

If you were writing about how
de Vaca's experiences with
the Native Americans may
have influenced him to treat
them humanely later in his
life, which passage below
would give good supporting
detail?
Answer:
- Para 23: "We got to their dwellings, where we saw they had built a hut for us with many fires in it"
Explanation:
As per the question, the 23rd passage would provide the most adequate supporting details to substantiate the claim that 'de Vaca's encounter with the native Americans might be the cause of Vaca's kind and generous treatment of them in his later life.' This is reflected through the descriptions in the passage like 'we got to their dwellings...in it' as it shows that this experience made him understand their life, culture, and values which they offer to others despite being indigenous. Thus, this not only supports but justifies the claim as well. Hence, para 23 is the correct answer.

There are, for example, the Spartans and the Romans. The Spartans held Athens and Thebes, establishing there an oligarchy: nevertheless they lost them. The Romans, in order to hold Capua, Carthage, and Numantia, dismantled them, and did not lose them. They wished to hold Greece as the Spartans held it, making it free and permitting its laws, and did not succeed. How does the text structure help the author convey his central idea in this chapter? By describing the actions taken by the Spartans and the Romans, Machiavelli sets up a comparison with the actions of other conquering forces discussed in the chapter. By contrasting the outcomes of Spartan and Roman conquests, Machiavelli provides evidence to support his claim that a prince must destroy a free city in order to hold it. By contrasting the goals of the Spartans and the Romans, Machiavelli establishes the problem of maintaining control of a conquered city, to which he will propose a solution. By listing the effects of these Spartan and Roman conquests, Machiavelli supports his overall description of how princes do or do not maintain control over the cities they conquer.
Answer:
The text structure helps the author convey his central idea in this chapter:
B. By contrasting the outcomes of Spartan and Roman conquests, Machiavelli provides evidence to support his claim that a prince must destroy a free city in order to hold it.
Explanation:
Niccolò Machiavelli, born in 1469, was an Italian political philosopher and statesman. The excerpt we are analyzing here belongs to his book "The Prince", published in 1532.
The structure of the passage contrasts the results of different conquests. According to Machiavelli, whenever a country conquers another, it is important to rule it personally or through an oligarchy, or to ruin it. Those are the ways to hold that country, keep it in one's possession. Any other way will lead to losing it.
That is why he mentions the Spartans and the Romans. The Spartans lost the lands they conquered because they gave them too much freedom. The Romans, on the other hand, were able to hold certain countries only because they dismantled them. This contrast serves as evidence to support the ideas above.

Answer:

Explanation:
"The Wife's Lament" is a poem about a lost love, where the speaker laments the separation between herself and her husband. While reading the poem, we can see that the speaker was forced to be banished in a wood that prevents her from seeing her husband again, even though she loves him very much.

Which is the best meaning of the phrase "she’ll not be hit with Cupid’s arrow”?
Answer:
She does not want to fall in love with anyone.
Explanation:
The phrase 'to be hit with Cupid's arrow' is based on classical mythology. Cupid is the son of Venus and Mercury and he is associated with love and desire. He carries arrows with which he shoots his victims. When a person is hit by an arrow, the person immediately falls in love. Therefore, as the quote states that she will not be hit with an arrow, the suggestion is that she will not fall in love with anyone.
