e. After tell / say we can use (not) to + infinitive.

Answers

Answer:

a). The coach

b). Annie

c). Tell

d). Say

e). Tell

Explanation:

As per the question, the correct words to fill in the given rules are mentioned above. Since the coach is giving advice, he is the speaker and therefore, 'he' refers to him while 'me'(the listener) is Annie. The object 'me' is used with tell in reported speech to indicate the message given by the speaker while 'say' is followed by 'that' instead of using an object. In case of 'tell', one can employ 'not to + infinitive(base form of the verb' as it is followed by the object.

how is this situational irony

Answers

it’s situational irony because it says it’s always open however underneath it’s say the total opposite. Basically disregarding the intention of the entire thing

The situational irony is that it advertises that it is always open but actually means the exact opposite, basically ignoring the overall goal of the situation.

What is irony?

Irony is a crucial rhetorical device and literary technique that refers to the juxtaposition of what on the surface seems to be the situation and what is actually the case or to be expected.

There are several different varieties of irony, including situational, dramatic, and linguistic irony. When stating a truth, verbal, dramatic, and situational irony are frequently utilized to emphasise the point.

By purposefully using language that says the opposite of the truth, rejects the contrary of the truth, or dramatically and blatantly understates a factual link, the ironic form of simile, employed in sarcasm, and some kinds of litotes can stress one's meaning.

Classical irony: The definition of the phrase by classical and mediaeval rhetoricians, as well as its roots in Ancient Greek comedy. A form of literature that is self-aware and self-critical is romantic irony.

Read the text and fill in the blank with the correct relative pronoun: "System InitiativesThe global, regional and industry challenges facing the world are the result of many “systems” – from global systems _______ influence the environment and natural resource security, to the economic systems that create inequality, to the regional systems that determine the fortunes of nations, to the industry systems that determine the effectiveness of supply and demand. To enable our constituents to make sustained positive change, we work with them to understand and influence the entirety of the system that affects the challenges and opportunities they are trying to address. We do this through a series of System Initiatives, described below."

Answers

Answer:

The best relative pronoun would be "that", but "which" also works.

That works for both people and things, and the world "global systems" is grammatically a thing, so "that" works for it.

Which only works for things, and emphasizes a bit more the preceding term.

Which is correct?
O A. Many cities had to cut down great numbers of stately old elm trees, when they became infected with Dutch elm disease.
O B. Many cities had to cut down great numbers of stately old elm trees. When they became infected with Dutch elm disease.
O C. Many cities had to cut down great numbers of stately old elm trees when they became infected with Dutch elm disease.​

Answers

Answer:

O C. Many cities had to cut down great numbers of stately old elm trees when they became infected with Dutch elm disease.

Explanation:

You usually only use commas in between two independent clauses. An independent clause is a sentence that works on its own. It does not need any  more information to understand. It doesn't depend on anything other than itself.

However, you don't need a comma in between an independent clause and a dependent clause. Dependent clauses are just what they sound like: they depend on independent clauses. Dependent clauses are all the background information that is not entirely necessary, but they add detail.

Let's take a look at the other answers:

O A."Many cities had to cut down great numbers of stately old elm trees" is a dependent clause. You can just slap a period at the end it it works just fine. However, there is also a dependent clause with a comma that follows it: ",when they became infected with Dutch elm disease." Remember, you don't follow an independent clause with a comma and a dependent clause. This is a wrong answer.

O B. "Many cities had to cut down great numbers of stately old elm trees. When they became infected with Dutch elm disease." The first sentence is an independent clause, and it works fine. But, the second sentence is a dangling modifier. It describes something, but doesn't show the thing in that sentence. It doesn't make sense.

O C. "Many cities had to cut down great numbers of stately old elm trees when they became infected with Dutch elm disease.​" This makes perfect sense. It has an independent clause "Many cities had to cut down great numbers of stately old elm trees" and a dependent clause (which needs the independent clause in a sentence with it to work): when they became infected with Dutch elm disease.​" It doesn't have a comma in between the independent and dependent clauses, so this is the right answer.
