By the time [this book] came to be written, it was obvious that there would be great difficulty in getting it published; . . . it was refused by four publishers. Only one of these had any [moral] motive. Two had been publishing anti-Russian books for years, and the other had no noticeable political colour.

Which choice is correctly punctuated?I need to hurry and go to the library; it will close soon.
The sign says; the library will close at 3:00 p.m.
Before it closes; I need to go to the library.
The library closes at: 3:00 p.m.

Answers

Answer:

I need to hurry and go to the library; it will close soon.

Explanation:

A semicolon can be used to join two independent clauses when they are closely related in meaning. In the second option, a colon should be introducing what the sign says. In the third option, a comma should be separating the subordinate clause "Before it closes" from the main clause "I need to go to the library." In the fourth option, no punctuation should separate the proposition "at"  from its object (3:00 p.m.).

I need to hurry and go to the library; it will close soon.

Describe the primary and secondary conflicts in the excerpt. Then, analyze what motivates each character to act the way they do in the excerpt.

The primary conflict in this passage is between Lindo and Meimei. Meimei is annoyed at Lindo for Lindo's critics which she find illogical.

The primary conflict in this passage is between Lindo and Meimei. Meimei is annoyed at Lindo for Lindo's critiques, which she finds illogical. This miscommunication is an external conflict. The secondary conflict is within Meimei herself. She's annoyed at her mom, but in the end, she knows that expressing that annoyance is not the way to win the argument. If Meimei is to master the power of "invisible strength" versus overt aggression, she has to figure out an angle that will work. Simply telling her mom to back off will not win her any points. For Lindo's part, she is motivated by a desire to see Meimei succeed. Although Meimei wins the games, Lindo knows that it's important that Meimei continue to improve. Since she doesn't know how to play chess, Lindo may not even be serious in her critique. Her main message is this: "Don't get complacent; keep improving!"

Answers

it is not D or B so it must be a or c. I'm guessing it would be A.

Answer:

A

Explanation:

How is the noun clause used in the sentence? Give whoever calls on the phone the directions to our house.

A.
direct object

B.
predicate nominative

C.indirect object

D.
object of a preposition

Answers

The correct answer is C, indirect object. An indirect object is the part of the sentence that the action verb is being done to, or for. For example, in the sentence 'I threw the ball to my friend', 'friend' is the indirect object, because you're throwing the ball to your friend. The noun clause in this sentence is 'whoever calls on the phone', or 'whoever', and it is an indirect object because you're giving the directions to whoever calls on the phone.

Hope this helps!
