Which of these excerpts from the story includes an adverbial phrase set off with a comma?

The riots were suppressed, but there were

many burglaries in the suburb...

While the little boy and the pet dog raced

ahead, the husband and wife found

O themselves comparing the possible

effectiveness of each style against its

appearance...

There would be no way out, only a struggle

getting bloodier and bloodier ...

The husband said, Don't worry, my dear,

cats always look before they leap.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

While the little boy and the pet dog raced  ahead, the husband and wife found  themselves comparing the possible  effectiveness of each style against its  appearance...  

Explanation:

An adverbial phrase is a phrase or group of words that modifies the verb, adverb, and adjectives in a sentence. And if an adverbial phrase begins any sentence, then it should always be followed by a comma.

Among the given sentences, the second sentence contains an adverbial phrase that is set off with a comma. The adverbial phrase is "while the little boy and the pet dog raced ahead" which is then followed by a comma, separating it from the independent clause of the remaining sentence.

Thus, the correct answer is the second option/ sentence.

Hope this helps and have a great day :)

And please mark me brainliest if you can :)

Answer is Colloquialisms.

This is because words like “gonna,” “wanna,” “woulda” are all informal while “going to,” “want to,” and “would have” are all examples of formal words. Colloquialisms are informal words and “gonna” is an example of such. The informal words listed above are really slang words rather than proper words. These informal words are often or should be used when speaking to a friend or family instead of a boss or administrator. So yes, these are Colloquialisms. I really hoped I helped you !

In this excerpt, the author shows how terrible conditions can cause people to be unsympathetic to the pain of others. How does the memoir genre enable the author to achieve this purpose? He is able to include facts to support his story. He is able to remain objective about what is happening. He is able to share his observations about one event in depth. He is able to provide an in-depth look about why the woman is shouting.

Answers

Read the excerpt from chapter 2 of Night. And so an hour or two passed. Another scream jolted us. The woman had broken free of her bonds and was shouting louder than before: "Look at the fire! Look at the flames! Flames everywhere . . .” Once again, the young men bound and gagged her. When they actually struck her, people shouted their approval: "Keep her quiet! Make that madwoman shut up. She’s not the only one here . . .” She received several blows to the head, blows that could have been lethal. Her son was clinging desperately to her, not uttering a word. He was no longer crying.

Answer:

. He is able to share his observations about one event in depth

Explanation:

Given that A memoir is a biographical writing that consist of various memories about a real life person, instead of fiction. It is actually established on factual incident, written from the perception of the author.

Answers

Answer:

Independent clauses linked without a conjunction - Hang gliding is a popular pastime; it takes skill and a bit of daring.

An introductory participial phrase - Walking without a cane, the old man tried to escape unnoticed.

A mark indicating that a list will follow - These colors were chosen for the school: purple, green, and white.

A comma linking two independent clauses - Christ was equal with God, but He willingly became a servant.

A sentence demonstrating direct address - You seem to have found, my good friend, a real peace in life.

Explanation:

When a sentence consists of multiple independent clauses, they need to be connected by a conjunction preceded by a comma or a semicolon (like in the sentence: Hang gliding is a popular pastime; it takes skill and a bit of daring.)

Introductory participial phrases are phrases that contain participles and are located at the beginning of the sentence. Participles are forms of verbs used as adjectives. They end in -ed, -ing or -en.

The mark that indicates that a list will follow is the colon.

Direct address involves the use of a person's name or title to address that person directly.

write one paragraph about the things that make you stressed and how you deal with these things

Answers

Answer:

 School, family, and friends are the things that make me stress a lot. I usually stay quiet and not say a word. But when I do, my family/friends think I'm being a drama queen, and that causes more stress. So, I deal with these things by myself. I try to relax, get some alone time, and forget all my problems. I've learned that stress causes headaches, so I try to clam down and not stress out a lot.

  I always make sure that I can at least have a few minutes alone, to clam down and relax. Most of the time, I listen to calming music and breathe in and out. I've been stressing a lot these days, so this is the time I stay silence. But, I've always found a way to relax and not think of the world's expectations of me, but instead think about my expectations of myself.

IS UNCHOOPPING a tree possible? What does the writer ask us to do indirectly​

Answers

First and foremost, it should be very clear that unchopping a tree has never been possible. Although in the essay “Unchopping a Tree”, the writer has given us instructions for repairing a tree if it is cut down, both the writer and the readers know the fact that this task is impossible. So, we can say that this essay has been written in pseudo directive style. As it is clear that unchopping a tree is never possible, the essay has another message. The message is that if we cannot unchop a tree, it is better not to chop down trees. In other words, this essay indirectly suggests us we should preserve the environment.

The deliberate irony Orwell uses is called doublespeak, which is when words are used not to convey meaning – but to undermine it – corrupting the very ideas that they refer to. "War is Peace" is one of 1984's doublespeak slogans. WHAT ARE THE OTHER TWO DOUBLESPEAK SLOGANS? *

Answers

Answer:

Other doublespeak slogans are:

1. Freedom Is Slavery

2. Ignorance Is Strength

Explanation:

George Orwell, in his book, 1984 portrayed the use of doublespeak (doublethink). Doublespeak is a form of language which seeks to deliberately distort and reverse the meaning of words.

In his book, 1984, the Party used doublespeak (doublethink) as part of their campaigning which spreads propaganda and goes further to manipulate the public and even leadership. It is the ability of holding two beliefs that are contradictory and believed to be true.

So, in his book, the doublespeak examples that are seen are: War Is Peace, Freedom Is Slavery and Ignorance Is Strength.
