The answer to this question is B
Answer:
The correct answer is the fourth option: The Sahara Desert stretches 3,200 miles across the northern portion of Africa.
Explanation:
Since we are looking for the sentence with correct capitalization, we might be tempted to choose the second option. That, however, is not the best choice.
As we know, proper nouns should always be capitalized. A proper noun is a name that identifies a specific place, thing, or person. Thus, the proper nouns in the sentence - Sahara Desert and Africa - should be capitalized since they name a specific desert and a specific continent.
On the other hand, words such as northern, eastern, southern, and western should only be capitalized when they refer to the people who live in a certain region or to their activities. They should not be capitalized when indicating location. That's why the best option is:
The Sahara Desert stretches 3,200 miles across the northern portion of Africa.

Cherries, honeysuckles, violets, bluets; buttercups, larkspurs, and gilias are full of bloom of leaf and flower. Plant-odor fills the valley in light floating clouds and mists, it covers the ground and trees and every nook and cranny of the valley.

Plant-odor fills the valley in light floating clouds and mists; it covers the ground and trees and every nook and cranny of the valley.
Answer:
D.
Explanation:
The last answer choice uses semicolons correctly.
"Now is the birth-time of leaves; the pines are retassled, and the oaks are sprayed with young purple. Spring is fully committed. Ferns are a foot high, and willows are letting fly drifts of ripe seeds. Balm of Gilead poplars, after weeks of caution, have launched their buds full of red and leaves of tender glossy yellow. Cherries, honeysuckles, violets, bluets, buttercups, larkspurs, and gilias are full of bloom of leaf and flower. Plant-odor fills the valley in light floating clouds and mists; it covers the ground and trees and every nook and cranny of the valley."
The semicolon in the first sentence (Now is the birth-time of leaves; the pines are retassled...) separates two independent clauses that have no coordinating conjunctions between them, and so does the semicolon in the last sentence of the paragraph (Plant-odor fills the valley in light floating clouds and mists; it covers the ground...).
The correct option is the fourth one that uses semicolons correcty.
Now is the birth-time of leaves; the pines are retasseled, and the oaks are sprayed with young purple. Spring is fully committed. Ferns are a foot high, and willows are letting fly drifts of ripe seeds. Balm of Gilead poplars, after weeks of caution, have launched their buds full of red and leaves of tender glossy yellow. Cherries, honeysuckles, violets, bluets, buttercups, larkspurs, and gilias are full of bloom of leaf and flower. Plant-odor fills the valley in light floating clouds and mists; it covers the ground and trees and every nook and cranny of the valley.
Semicolons are used to connect closely related independent clauses or to separate items in a list when those items themselves contain commas. In the fourth option, semicolons are used correctly in the following ways:
1. Now is the birth-time of leaves; the pines are retasseled, and the oaks are sprayed with young purple. - A semicolon is used correctly to separate two independent clauses that are closely related in thought.
2. Ferns are a foot high, and willows are letting fly drifts of ripe seeds. - Here, a comma is correctly used before the coordinating conjunction and in a compound sentence.
3. Balm of Gilead poplars, after weeks of caution, have launched their buds full of red and leaves of tender glossy yellow. - Commas are used correctly to set off the introductory phrase after weeks of caution.
4. Cherries, honeysuckles, violets, bluets, buttercups, larkspurs, and gilias are full of bloom of leaf and flower. - This is a simple list of items, so no semicolons are needed.
5. Plant-odor fills the valley in light floating clouds and mists; it covers the ground and trees and every nook and cranny of the valley. - A semicolon is used correctly to separate two independent clauses that are closely related in thought.
In the other options, semicolons are either used incorrectly (such as before and in a list where no previous semicolon is needed, or after a coordinating conjunction), or commas are used incorrectly (such as the unnecessary comma after and in the second and third options). The fourth option correctly employs semicolons and commas to clarify the structure of the sentences and enhance readability.
Analyze the final quote of the novel: “Gatsby believed in the green light, the orgastic future that year by year recedes before us. it eluded is then, but that’s no matter—tomorrow we will run faster, stretch out our arms farther ... and one fine morning—so we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past” (Fitzgerald 189)
This quote focuses on the idea that sometimes, no matter how hard people try, they cannot achieve their goals or deepest desires. They reach out further and further for one thing or someone and never get to it. Some never lose hope and "stretch out their arms farther", but that doesn't mean they'll get there. They have more optimism. These final words are just about Gatsby's struggle to achieve the American dream and his dream girl and the unfortunate events that follow his endeavors.

Read "I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud" and answer the question.
[1] I wandered lonely as a cloud
That floats on high o'er vales and hills,
When all at once I saw a crowd,
A host, of golden daffodils;
[5] Beside the lake, beneath the trees,
Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.
Continuous as the stars that shine
And twinkle on the milky way,
They stretched in never-ending line
[10] Along the margin of a bay:
Ten thousand saw I at a glance,
Tossing their heads in sprightly dance.
The waves beside them danced; but they
Out-did the sparkling waves in glee:
[15] A poet could not but be gay,
In such a jocund company:
I gazed—and gazed—but little thought
What wealth the show to me had brought:
For oft, when on my couch I lie
[20] In vacant or in pensive mood,
They flash upon that inward eye
Which is the bliss of solitude;
And then my heart with pleasure fills,
And dances with the daffodils.
What happens in the third stanza?
The poet imagines seeing countless stars, waves, and flowers.
The poet reflects on the day that his sadness was very severe.
The poet sees the waves and watches the daffodils with awe.
The poet witnesses many natural wonders in the sky and on land.

in at least one hundred words sumarize the main argument of "if black english isnt a language then tell me what is
We could say that the main argument expressed in this text, is that Black English can't be thought of as a mere dialect under the veil of White American English focusing on its differences.
Anything less than recognizing Black English as its own separate language, would be an injustice and an oversight. Language is an integral part of culture and identity, it functions as one of the main tools for self-expression and assimilation of tradition. Taking Black English only as a dialet would represent a complete dismissal of the distinct history of African American population and their journey. Since slavery to modern times, black culture has come a long way towards embracing their uniqueness as a form of empowerment, and language has most definitely been a crucial tool in achieving this goal.

Explanation:
Read the excerpt from Eighty Years and More: Reminiscences, 1815-1897.
"My father," I replied, "prefers boys; he wishes I was one, and I intend to be as near like one as possible. I am going to ride on horseback and study Greek. Will you give me a Greek lesson now, doctor? I want to begin at once." "Yes, child," said [Rev. Simon Hosack], throwing down his tool, "come into my library and we will begin without delay." He entered fully into the feeling of suffering and sorrow which took possession of me when I discovered that a girl weighed less in the scale of being than a boy, and he praised my determination to prove the contrary.
Based on the excerpt, which best states what Stanton wants to prove to her father, the Reverend, and society?
A. Girls and boys are interested in the same hobbies.
B. Girls and boys need the same amount of encouragement.
C. Girls and boys are equally intelligent and able.
D. Girls and boys have equally deep emotions.
Answer: The right answer is the C) Girls and boys are equally intelligent and able.
Explanation: Just to elaborate a little bit on the answer, it can also be added that since she says that she felt very sorrowful and suffered tremendously when she realized that girls were considered less, or inferior, as human beings ("when I discovered that a girl weighed less in the scale of being than a boy"), and immediately resolved to prove otherwise, taking lessons in Greek and horseback riding, as boys at that time used to do, it is possible to state that what she wanted to demonstrate to her father, the Reverend, and society as a whole was that a girl was as equally intelligent and able as a boy.
Based on the excerpt, Stanton wants to prove to her father, the Reverend, and society that Girls and boys are equally intelligent and able. Thus option C is correct.
In the excerpt from Eighty Years and More: Reminiscences, 1815-1897, Stanton has gone to the doctor where she discussed the suffering she has been going through. Stanton has been felt inferior by her father, as he assumes boys to be more capable and intelligent than girls.
Stanton told the doctor that her father didn't find her capable of learning horse riding and greek. Thus, when the doctor knows Greek, she asked him to teach her Greek so that she can prove to her father, Reverend, and society that girls are not inferior to boys, and they both are equal.
Thus option C is correct that Stanton wants to prove that girls and boys are equally intelligent and able.
