QUESTION 1
What is wrong with the italic underlined words?
Not many of us would want to do without our telephone but there are times when the phone is a source of anxiety. For example, I
might have been walking up to my front door. When the phone rang. I struggled to find my key, to unlock the door, and getting to
the phone quickly. The phone would not stop ringing the instant I picked up the receiver, then I wondered if I missed the call that
would have made me an millionaire or introduced me to the love of my life. Another time, I may have call in sick to work with a
phony excuse. All day long, you were afraid to leave the house in case the boss calls back. And asked if I were feeling well enough
to go out after work yesterday. In addition I worried that I might have accidentally pick up the phone and said in a cheerful voice,
“Hello, completely forgetting to use my fake cough. In cases like these having a telephone is more of a curse than a blessing.

Answer:

O should read "these, having"

Explanation:

In the given passage, the speaker's main point is to emphasize the negative impact of having telephones. While we generally only talk of its importance in our daily lives, we often see or find the negative impacts being talked about.

In the given italicized sentence "In cases like these having a telephone is more of a curse than a blessing", while the sentence is correct in the use of the words or spelling, there is one error that can be changed. It is the usage of the comma in between "these" and "having".

Thus, the correct answer is the second option.

This excerpt is taken from Patrick Henry's famous "Give me liberty or give me death" speech at the Second Virginia Convention in 1775. Which sentence points to the efforts made by the American colonists to avoid war?

Let us not, I beseech you, sir, deceive ourselves. Sir, we have done everything that could be done to avert the storm which is now coming on. We have petitioned; we have remonstrated; we have supplicated; we have prostrated ourselves before the throne, and have implored its interposition to arrest the tyrannical hands of the ministry and Parliament. Our petitions have been slighted; our remonstrances have produced additional violence and insult; our supplications have been disregarded; and we have been spurned, with contempt, from the foot of the throne! In vain, after these things, may we indulge the fond hope of peace and reconciliation. There is no longer any room for hope. If we wish to be free—if we mean to preserve inviolate those inestimable privileges for which we have been so long contending—if we mean not basely to abandon the noble struggle in which we have been so long engaged, and which we have pledged ourselves never to abandon until the glorious object of our contest shall be obtained—we must fight! I repeat it, sir, we must fight! An appeal to arms and to the God of hosts is all that is left us!
