Answer:
Watching an exciting movie.
Explanation:
The word "enthralled" means being "interested", caught the attention, or focused, captivated, or fascinated by something. It means getting the attention or paying attention to what was shown or being done.
So, in the given sentence, the speaker remarks how he was captivated by the Shakespeare play even though he thought it'd be boring. That means that the play was interesting. So, the person most likely to be "enthralled" is someone who is watching an exciting movie.
Thus, the correct answer is the fourth option.
The hole in Neils was _____. jacket was you barely noticed it.
Which vocabulary word best fits in the blank?
Subtle
Anonymous
Poverty
Answer:
The hole in Neil's jacket was subtle. You barely noticed it.
Explanation:
In order to solve this question, you need to know what the words you were given mean. When you're unsure about what a word means, you can look it up in a dictionary - an alphabetically arranged listing of words that contains various information about them, such as their definitions, examples, origin, pronunciation, etc.
The word you're looking for is subtle. When something is subtle, it isn't noticeable or obvious in any way. Since someone didn't notice the hole in Neil's jacket, we can say that it is subtle.
We use the word anonymous to talk about people who aren't identified by their name.

The excerpt from the passage - The Autobiography of Benjamin Franklin refers. Here the writer indicates that he had learned a thing or two on his quest to better his grip of English grammar.
According to him, he had also mastered the use of rhetoric and logic and with a facade of a humble enquirer and doubter and became proficient in winning arguments and concession even from people who were masters at their own subject areas or expertise.
The trick there was to appear to not know, unchallenging and almost ignorant, a strategy which lowered the "defensive" walls of the respondents. It is in this light that the writer uses the word diffidence.
Towards the end of the excerpt, he quotes the 8th line of Alexander Pope's writ "An Essay on Criticism: Part 3" where it former in advising on how to approach criticism advises as follows:
"And speak, though sure, with seeming diffidence"

In which sentence do the subject and verb agree? Nothing taste as good as my dad's five-alarm chili. Most of the group's music are playing on the radio. Several of those coats is on sale this week. Some of Meredith's poems make me laugh.
Answer:
The sentence in which the subject and the verb agree is:
Some of Meredith's poems make me laugh.
Explanation:
In English we must pay attention to the subject in order to choose the correct form of the verb that refers to it. If the subject is plural, the verb must be in its plural form. But if it's singular, the verb must be altered in accordance, especially if it is the third person of speech (he, she, or it). Let's take a look at the sentences:
1. Nothing taste as good as my dad's five-alarm chili. --> "taste" refers to "nothing". Since "nothing" is third-person singular, the correct conjugation would be "tastes".
2. Most of the group's music are playing on the radio. --> "are" refers to "most", but "most" refers to "music", which is uncountable. For that reason, "most" needs a singular verb. The correct form would be "is".
3. Several of those coats is on sale this week. --> "is" refers to "several". "Several" implies that there are many of something, and it refers to "coats", which is clearly plural. The correct form would be "are".
4. Some of Meredith's poems make me laugh. --> This is the sentence with the correct subject-verb agreement. "Some" refers to "poems", which is a countable noun in its plural form. Thus, the verb "make" is correct.

restaurant realize that they were putting their customers at great

An aerospace engineering company borrowed $100,000 from the bank to get their company started. The company promised to pay a monthly payment of $500 to pay off the loan. The company could potentially turn profits of $20,000 a month. How long will it take the company to make $200000? *
Answer:
Explanation:
aerospace engineering company borrowed $100,000 from the bank to get their company started. The company promised to pay a monthly payment of $500 to pay off the loan. The company could potentially turn profits of $20,000 a month. How long will it take the company to make $200000?
Amount borrowed = $100,000
Monthly repayment = $500
Monthly profit = $20,000
How long it'll take company to make $200,000
Since the company pays back $500 monthly, then net profit per month will be :
$20,000 - $500 = $19500
How long it'll take to make $200,000
Projected profit / net profit per month
$200,000 / $19500
= 10.256410
= about 10 months
Which sentence uses a comma correctly to set off coordinating adjectives?
A. Through the dense, fog they could just make out the figures
approaching
B. Meg breathed a sigh of relief to be back in Aunt Sylvia's cheerful,
homey kitchen.
C. The stale curdled milk, made LaShawna wrinkle her nose.
D. Bernard waved furiously at the first, yellow car he saw.
Answer:
B. Meg breathed a sigh of relief to be back in Aunt Sylvia's cheerful, homey kitchen.
Explanation:
When multiple adjectives are placed next to each other, sometimes, a comma should be placed between them, and sometimes it shouldn't. This depends on whether the adjectives are coordinate or cumulative.
Coordinate adjectives separately modify the noun that follows them. A comma should be placed between them.Cumulative adjectives don’t separately modify the noun that follows them. Instead, the adjective right before the noun pairs with the noun, and then the adjective before them modifies that entire phrase. A comma shouldn't be placed between cumulative adjectives.If you're unsure if adjectives are coordinate or cumulative, you can try placing the conjunction and between them. If the phrase still makes sense, you have coordinate adjectives and should place a comma between them.
This is the case in option B. It's alright to say cheerful and homey kitchen. Since the phrase still makes sense, these adjectives are coordinate and should be separated by a comma.
Answer:
B. Meg breathed a sigh of relief to be back in Aunt Sylvia's cheerful, homey kitchen.

Nietzsche heavily critiques the church he seems to think that the church encourages in force people to Jethro humanity what do you think Nietzsche would have to say about the church today in your opinion or his criticism still valid
The correct answer to this open question is the following.
It is well-known that Nietzsche disliked the Catholic church. Nietzsche heavily critiqued the church. But we have to be clear on this. The critics were to the church as the institution it represented, its hierarchy, and dogmatic control over the people. His critics were never against Jesus of Nazareth or his doctrine.
Being that the case, I think Nietzsche would have to say about the church today is practically the same. His criticism is still valid.
The church hasn't changed a bit in centuries. It continues to have the same old mentality that has always characterized it.
Without a doubt, Nietzsche thought that the Enlightenment had come to erase the archaic concept that people have of believing everything the church said. And that was good.
Nowadays, the church does not have the moral authority to tell the people what to do or say.

What rhetorical device is this and why?
Answer:
Explanation:
On 19 November, we commemorate the anniversary of Abraham Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address in 1863.
In one of the first posts on this blog, I compared Lincoln’s two-minute address with the two-hour oration by Edward Everett on the same occasion. Today, people regard the former as one of the most famous speeches in American history; the latter largely forgotten. Indeed, Everett himself recognized the genius of Lincoln’s speech in a note that he sent to the President shortly after the event:
“I should be glad, if I could flatter myself that I came as near to the central idea of the occasion, in two hours, as you did in two minutes.”
First, it is important to remember the context. America was in the midst of a bloody civil war. Union troops had only recently defeated Confederate troops at the Battle of Gettysburg. It was a the turning point in the war. The stated purpose of Lincoln’s speech was to dedicate a plot of land that would become Soldier’s National Cemetery. However, Lincoln realized that he also had to inspire the people to continue the fight.
