That's a lot of questions! Here goes:1. Nature and character are really about the same thing, so mentioning them both is redundant and wordy. For that matter, why mention them at all? (A) is the best sentence.2. Either sentence is correct depending on the context. "If she were..." presents a hypothetical, whereas "if she had been..." refers to an actual event at some point in the past.3. There are a lot of modifiers modifying a lot of things in both sentences, both of which, by the way, are grammatically correct. (A) is more economical, however, so I prefer it between these two choices.4. 1) may (or might) win 2) cannot play 3) should tell5. (D) is correct. The first three choices are confused and wordy.6. Neither sentence is correct. It should read "The enemy left their weapons in the field," or, honoring a soldier's convention of referring to his enemies by the masculine singular, "The enemy left his weapons in the field."7. Either sentence is correct; I prefer (A) because (B) sounds like a question.8. Either is correct depending on context. (a) refers to a general quality of roentgen, whereas (b) refers to a particular time when it exhibited this quality.Hope this helps, and thanks for asking!
Some English questions, help please ?
hey, friends, i have been reading an article, and i have some questions about it: (it is a reading about working from home): 1. In the introductory paragraph, it has been written " Can you feel your anxiety and stress levels INCREASING every time you get caught in a traffic jam?" but in the longman dictionary of contemporary English ( a dictionary installed on my computer) it has been mentioned that after feel we should use the simple form of the verb, for example: i felt my heart BEAT, when i saw her. So, why is it "INCREASING" rather than "INCREASE"? 2. In the same paragraph, i see " Do you just NOT have the right kind of office attire, ...", but i don't understand, why NOT is where it is, and i would deeply appreciate it, if you explain to me, why sometimes NOTs are not in the place they should be ( i have faced this kind of grammar few times, but i don't know the reason. 3. Again in the same paragraph there is an expersion " on your back", in this way: " would you feel better if you had fewer people ON YOUR BACK?" I checked this at longman, but it has been said that " if someone achieves sth on their back, they achieve it by having sex with someone"! 4. i checked " suggest ", but it was not said that we could use suggest in the way in this text had been " SUGGEST TO YOUR BOSS THAT you wish to become one of the..." 5. What are the differences between " place of work" and " work place"? THANKS A LOT

For although he /usually/ sang at night, his playing was characterized by velocity, by long-continued successions of notes and phrases, by swoops, bleats, echoes, rapidly repeated bebops--I mean rebopped bebops--by mocking mimicry of other jazzmen's styles, and by interpolations of motifs from extraneous melodies, all of which added up to the dazzling display of wit, satire, burlesque, and pathos. Which statement best summarizes the effect of the sentence? a. length of the sentence suggests the difficulty of artistic creation b. numerous abstractions provide a startling contrast to the preceding sentence c. irony of the sentence highlights the complexity of Parker’s music d. complexity of the sentence’s structure mirrors the complexity of Parker’s music e. extensive use of prepositions underscores the repetitiveness of Parker’s style I have other questions needing longer passages but due to character limit this is all of the passage I can put. Please e-mail if you are willing to help
