Answers

Answer 1
Answer:


The sentence that uses possessive personal pronouns correctly is A. Have you seen the cat and its kittens?

B.  is wrong because (their's) is not a word, it would have to be their or theirs, no apostrophe.

C. Stanley claimed that the papers were his'. is wrong because (his) is the possessive no apostrophe after the s.

D.  is wrong because (it's) is a contraction for 'it is'. And you wouldn't say, the squirrel twitched it is tail.

Hope this helps. :)

Bahh! Who needs technology to write? Did Shakespeare need a word processor? Did Fitzgerald have a spell check? Did Mary Shelley need a degree in robotics to create Frankenstein's monster? Throughout history, great writers have relied on little else than their fertile imaginations, and the effort of putting pen to paper in order to produce great literature. In today's world, many experts believe, in fact, that technology works against that impulse of imagination. Rather than reading "old-fashioned" books, youngsters are spending hours in front of the Internet. Rather than playing street games with neighborhood friends, youngsters are entertaining themselves with video games. Rather than playing cards, checkers or chess, youngsters are gluing themselves to the television set. A computer may be able to indicate a misspelling, but it can't differentiate between good ideas and weak ones. A computer may be able to spot an incomplete sentence, but it can't make a judgment about which sentences flow more fluidly than others. A computer can't organize our thoughts, place us in the minds of another character, or create images and language which tug at our heartstrings. Only the human mind and heart can write, so let's get back to basics, and pick up those pens once again!

Which two statements most accurately describe a tragic drama? 1.Based on the down fall of the main charater. 2.Based on mistaken identities that cause a lot of confusion. 3. Centered on the theme of marriage with inter winning plots. 4. Centered on a major flaw in the main characters personality. 5. Based on the dramatization of significant historical events.

Answers

Answer:

1 and 4

Explanation:

A tragic drama is a theatrical representation of the fall of kings or nobles. It begins in happiness and prosperous situations which end in chaos and catastrophe. The main character in a tragedy tends to be a remarkable person full of nobility who is degradated in the course of the play, thus, option 1. The degradation of the tragic hero revolves around a major flaw or various flaws in his personality which indeed provides a dramatic touch. Consequently, on stage we can see Macbeth among many memmorable tragedies.

I would go with:
1. Based on the down fall of the main character
4. Centered on a major flaw in the main characters personality.
Because, those two statements are the worst of them all and given that they're looking for a TRAGIC statement, 3 & 4 wouldn't  really fit in that category. I hope this helps!
