In using a colon to introduce a quotation, be
sure the clause before the colon is a
complete sentence (can stand alone). Which
sentence below uses a colon correctly?
A. Thomas Edison gave tribute to others when he said: "I start
where the last man left off."
B. Edison was known for his hard work: "Everything comes to
him who hustles while he waits."
C. Edison:"Opportunity is missed by most people because it is
dressed in overalls and looks like work."

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

B

Explanation:

Sentences A and C do not make sense because if you only those sentences up to the colon, you are left with a fragment. So, the answer is B, because "Edison was known for his hard work" makes sense on its own.

Read the excerpt below from "Choose Wisely," a literary analysis of S. E. Hinton's novel The Outsiders. As you read, consider what evidence is used to show that Dally makes poor choices throughout the novel.

At the beginning of the novel, Dally is rude to Cherry Valence, shows little sympathy for anyone other than his pet, Johnny, and is portrayed as an unfeeling, hot-headed person. Later in the novel, he makes no effort to save the children from the fire. Rather, he tries to stop Ponyboy and Johnny from entering the inflamed church. Although an argument can be made that Dally tries to stop the rescue because he cares for his friends, this action only shows that his choices are based on selfish reasoning--he doesn't want to lose friends because it might affect him. This selfishness also influences

How does this evidence support the idea that Dally makes poor choices throughout the novel?

Does the ending of Fahrenheit 451 feel fulfilling? Why or why not? Is the ending a deux ex machina (where the author suddenly saves the day with something that feels a little too neat, that doesn’t totally go with the logical build-up of the book)? Is the ending happy, sad, or a mixture?
What feelings are you left with for Montag and his society? What do you think happened to Faber? Do you think Montag and the outcasts’ plan for saving books is realistic?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Most of Fahrenheit 451 focuses on the vices and negative tendencies of human nature that mades Montag's society so dark and miserable.  So it is nice that at the end of the novel, there is a ray of hope. If you look at only the events of the ending, it still might seem quite cynical and depressiong; Montag's city has been decimated, his wife killed, Faber has suffered an unknown fate, Clarisse is gone, and everything that Montag ever knew or loved was destroyed.  That's not a very happy picture.

However, if you look closely at the plan that Granger outlines, and the story of the phoenix that he uses, there is a ray of hope and optimism.  Granger describes how according to legend, the phoenix, a bird,

"every few hundred years he built a pyre and burnt himself up...but every time he burnt himself up he sprang out of hte ashes, he got himself born all over again."

This story relates to Montag's society; it has crumbled and burned, and these men, these outliers, are going to be the ones to go back and rebuild everything.  Granger says that as they rebuild, this time, they are going to rebuild things right so that they can stop making all of the same mistakes.

So despite the dramatically depressing ending, Bradbury takes the ashes of Montag's society, and asserts that a brighter, better world can be built out of them, and Montag will be one of the people who helps to do that.  That is the feeling and hope that lies at the end of the novel.
