Your Language SkillsJulia ______ in the garden.
is working
working
is work
are working

Answers

Julia is working in the garden. The correct answer is A. This is because she is working at this very moment, which is why you need to use the present progressive tense in this sentence. B is wrong because you need to use the verb to be (is) in the sentence before it. Is work is a form that doesn't exist. Are working would be used if the subject of the sentence was plural, if there are more people involved.

Answer: Working

Comflict between Ralph and Jack quotes ?

Answers

"Shut up," said Ralph absently. He lifted the conch. "Seems to me we ought to have a chief to decide things."

"A chief! A chief!"

"I ought to be chief," said Jack with simple arrogance, "because I'm chapter chorister and head boy. I can sing C sharp." (1.229-231)

The suffusion drained away from Jack's face. Ralph waved again for silence.

"Jack's in charge of the choir. They can be—what do you want them be?"

"Hunters."

Jack and Ralph smiled at each other with shy liking. The rest began to talk eagerly. (1.254-257)

“You're no good on a job like this.”

“All the same –”

“We don’t want you,” said Jack, flatly. “Three’s enough.” (1.274-276)

"A fire! Make a fire!"

At once half the boys were on their feet. Jack clamored among them, the conch forgotten.

"Come on! Follow me!"

The space under the palm trees was full of noise and movement. Ralph was on his feet too, shouting for quiet, but no one heard him. All at once the crowd swayed toward the island and was gone—following Jack. (2.120-123)

Jack's face swam near him.

"And you shut up! Who are you, anyway? Sitting there telling people what to do. You can't hunt, you can't sing—"

"I'm chief. I was chosen."

"Why should choosing make any difference? Just giving orders that don't make any sense—" (5.238-241)

“Who thinks Ralph oughtn’t to be chief?”

He looked expectantly at the boys ranged around, who had frozen. Under the palms there was deadly silence.

“Hands up?” said Jack strongly, “whoever wants Ralph not to be chief?”

The silence continued, breathless and heavy and full of shame. Slowly the red drained from Jack’s cheeks, then came back with a painful rush. He licked his lips and turned his head at an angle, so that his gaze avoided the embarrassment of linking with another’s eye.

“How many think –”

His voice trailed off. The hands that held the conch shook. He cleared his throat, and spoke loudly.

“All right then.”

He laid the conch with great care in the grass at his feet. The humiliating tears were running from the corner of each eye.

“I’m not going to play any longer. Not with you.” (8.67-75)

Regarding the appropriate use of parentheses, all of the following statements are correct, except which one? A. Parentheses may be used to explain a phrase or clause. B. Parentheses may be used to emphasize a counter argument. C. Parentheses may be used to de-emphasize some portion of a sentence. D. Parentheses may be used to enclose and provide supplemental information.

Answers

Let's review what are parentheses for: Parentheses, always used in pairs, are used to to provide additional information. What is inside parentheses is not the most relevant information. Inside the parentheses you can have a single word, a fragment, or multiple complete sentences.

This being said, the right answer is:
B. Parentheses may be used to emphasize a counter argument.

I hope this helps.

I am sitting in the city free employment bureau. It’s the women’s section. We have been sitting here now for four hours. We sit here every day, waiting for a job. There are no jobs. Most of us have had no breakfast. Some have had scant rations for over a year. Hunger makes a human being lapse into a state of lethargy, especially city hunger. Is there any place else in the world where a human being is supposed to go hungry amidst plenty without an outcry, without protest, where only the boldest steal or kill for bread, and the timid crawl the streets, hunger like the beak of a terrible bird at the vitals?We sit looking at the floor. No one dares think of the coming winter. There are only a few more days of summer. Everyone is anxious to get work to lay up something for that long siege of bitter cold. But there is no work. Sitting in the room we all know it. That is why we don’t talk much. . . . We look at the floor. It’s too terrible to see this animal terror in each other’s eyes. . . .The girls are trying to get work. The prettier ones can get jobs in the stores when there are any, or waiting on table, but these jobs are only for the attractive and the adroit.
