This question is incomplete because the passage is missing; here is the complete question:
Read the passage from "The Seven Voyages of Sindbad the Sailor.”
[The porter] followed the servant into a vast room, where a great company was seated round a table covered with all sorts of delicacies. In the place of honor sat a tall, grave man, whose long white beard gave him a venerable air. Behind his chair stood a crowd of attendants eager to minister to his wants. This was the famous Sindbad himself. The porter, more than ever alarmed at the sight of so much magnificence, tremblingly saluted the noble company. Sindbad, making a sign to him to approach, caused him to be seated at his right hand, and himself heaped choice morsels upon his plate, and poured out for him a draught of excellent wine, and presently, when the banquet drew to a close, spoke to him familiarly, asking his name and occupation.
How do the underlined words and phrases in the passage create meaning? A. They explain the porter's anxiety at meeting a well-known man.
B. They set up a threatening conflict between Sindbad and the porter.
C. They describe the layout of the dining hall and the porter's location in it.
D. They demonstrate Sindbad's respectability and his generosity toward the porter.
The answer to this question is D. They demonstrate Sindbad's respectability and his generosity toward the porter.
Explanation:
In the passage, the narrator describes a meeting between the porter and Sindbad who is a respectable man. The idea of respectability is emphasized by the underlined sections such as "a tall, grave man, whose long white beard gave him a venerable air" that shows this man is venerable, and therefore respectable or "This was the famous Sindbad himself" because the word famous emphasizes this quality. Additionally, underlined sections such as "heaped choice morsels upon his plate" or "spoke to him familiarly" show Sindbad is generous with the porter because he does not mind sharing his food and benefits with the porter and is kind when he speaks to him.

And they may well ask why climb the highest mountain? Why, 35 years ago, fly the Atlantic? Why does Rice play Texas? We choose to go to the moon. We choose to go to the moon in this decade and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard, because that goal will serve to organize and measure the best of our energies and skills, because that challenge is one that we are willing to accept, one we are unwilling to postpone, and one which we intend to win, and the others, too.

Answer:
The pronoun that can take either a singular or a plural verb is:
D) some.

- Anyone knows how to make a cake from scratch?
- Nobody likes to be left alone.
- Several men are marching up the street.
On the other hand, "some" can accompany nouns that are either singular or plural. Therefore, the verb that follows can also be singular or plural:

- Some (of the soup) has been eaten.
Therefore, our answer is letter D) some.
A) the verb "to feel" is an opinion, sense, possession or an emotion? b) the verb "to recognize" is an opinion, sense, possession or an emotion? c) the verb "to think" is an opinion, sense, possession or an emotion? d) the verb "to understand" is an opinion, sense, possession or an emotion? e) the verb "to want" is an opinion, sense, possession or an emotion?

The cost of a car varies greatly depending upon what features you want in a car. What are some of the features that are the most expensive in a car? Which do you feel are most important?
Answer:
Some of the most expensive features in a car are:
Oversized wheels and Tires have become more and more common, particularly among luxury buyers.
Summer Tires, which despite being useful for specific driving conditions, all-season tires are good enough.
Four-Wheel Drives, despite being useful for specific driving conditions, require expensive repairs.
Performance Components, such as lower gas mileage, the maintenance schedule required, the cost of repairs
Built-In Navigation Systems are very expensive, and become obsolete rather quickly, in addition to being replaceable with a portable device
Explanation:
Camera- and Sensor-Based Systems add safety and convenience, although they may require expensive repairs when located near the bumpers. This is the one I consider the most important because it provides better security when driving, and the possibility of repairs can be avoided by placing the cameras inside so they don´t brake.

A. Oskar’s memories introduce the use of symbolism.
B. Oskar’s slang characterizes him as relaxed and casual.
C. Oskar’s attempts to recall the events build suspense.
D. Oskar’s rapid questioning foreshadows his panic.
Answer:
The way the narration affects the story in the excerpt is:
C. Oskar’s attempts to recall the events build suspense.
Explanation:
This excerpt belongs to the novel "Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close", by Jonathan Safran Foer. The narrator is Oskar, whose father was killed in the September 11 attacks. Notice that in this particular excerpt, the author has chosen to build suspense through Oskar's narration. He is attempting to recall something, but is unable to, leaving readers with the same doubts as him. We have no answer as to why his father's tuxedo was placed in such a strange place and manner. But since Oskar cannot recall what happened, we too cannot know.

"Life without plan is possible and plausible"
plz I need it ASAP
Thanks in advance
Answer:
Check below for the explanation
Explanation:
Life without plan is possible and plausibleLife without plan is possible and plausible because the destiny of man lies in the hands of the almighty. Man can do little or nothing in shaping his own life and destiny since a superior force has already pre-planned it. We live our lives like a script that has already been written, whether or not it is planned does not determine our ending or how best it is lived. Therefore, it is possible to live our lives the way we live it without necessarily putting a plan in place.
