Answers

Answer 1
Answer: I believe the correct answer is iambic pentameter. It is the most commonly used type of metrical line. It describes the rhythm of the words in a line being delivered. It is measured in small groups of syllables known as feet. The famous William Shakespeare used this in his sonnets and plays.

 2.contact with the general American mainstream
-no, this rather leads to the disappearance of dialects

3.cultural influences
-let's take an example: in former Yugoslavia, Serbo-Croatian developed into several dialects because people had different religions, so it's correct!


 4.ethnic background
-I think that a good example for such a dialect is Black Vernacular English, so correct!

Answer:

A dialect can be developed by all the options presented in the question.

Explanation:

Dialect is the peculiar language of some region, the regional variation of a certain language. Due to some cultural influences, ethnic background, proximity to other nationality and the vast territory of a country, the language can develop diverse dialectal differences, including in writing, but surprisingly maintains a unified norm providing for the maintenance of the same language throughout the country.

Scientists generally agree that Earth is getting warmer due to what's called the greenhouse effect. A greenhouse used for plants stays warm because sunlight and heat coming through the glass roof are mostly trapped. The heat doesn't radiate back into the atmosphere because it's partly trapped by the glass. Something like that happens on Earth. The atmosphere acts like a blanket that keeps the Sun's heat from leaking away into space. 2. The main conclusion you can draw from this paragraph is that A. a greenhouse helps plants to grow faster. B. because of the greenhouse effect, plants on Earth should thrive. C. in a greenhouse, the Sun's heat is trapped by the glass. D. the atmosphere keeps Earth warm

Answers

Answer:

C. in a greenhouse, the Sun's heat is trapped by the glass.

Explanation:

This is most likely the main conclusion that we can draw from this paragraph. In this paragraph, the author explains the mechanisms that take place in a greenhouse. He explains that a greenhouse is designed to keep heat in due to its glass structure. The author wants the reader to understand that this is similar to what happens with global warming on Earth.
the answer must be C because that's what the paragraph mostly talks about

Which sentence is punctuated incorrectly? The famous Fifth Symphony was composed after Beethoven went deaf.
Beethoven composed his famous Fifth Symphony after he had gone deaf.
After he had gone deaf, Beethoven composed his famous, Fifth Symphony.
Beethoven's famous Fifth Symphony was composed after he had gone deaf.
A?

Answers

Answer:

After he had gone deaf, Beethoven composed his famous, Fifth Symphony.

Explanation:

The chosen sentence contains a comma which wrongly separates the adjective famous from the noun phrase it modifies, which is Fifth Symphony. Therefore, the correct version of the sentence is:

After he had gone deaf, Beethoven composed his famous Fifth Symphony.

The rest of the alternatives are accurately punctuated.
Actually the answer is D. A is missing a comma. B is too. C shouldn't have a common after the word famous.

PLEASE HELP, WILL MARK BRAINLESTRead the third paragraph from Muir's essay "Calypso Borealis" and answer the question. [3] But when the sun was getting low and everything seemed most bewildering and discouraging, I found beautiful Calypso on the mossy bank of a stream, growing not in the ground but on a bed of yellow mosses in which its small white bulb had found a soft nest and from which its one leaf and one flower sprung. The flower was white and made the impression of the utmost simple purity like a snowflower. No other bloom was near it, for the bog a short distance below the surface was still frozen, and the water was ice cold. It seemed the most spiritual of all the flower people I had ever met. I sat down beside it and fairly cried for joy. Select two words or phrases from the text that demonstrate Muir's scientific approach to nature. "most bewildering" "bed of yellow mosses" "small white bulb" "utmost simple purity" "cried for joy"
