Which detail in the excerpt best supports the idea that the setting is in a very busy place? from Rogue Heart by Axie Oh The dreamers gather in Neo Beijing's starlight district. The wanderers and the thrill-seekers.Those with poems in their souls and secrets in their hearts. All those racing toward the bright, unknowable future. All those running from pasts painful and unforgiven. If you listen carefully, you can hear the song of the city. It's in the sharp, raucous laughter of the kids barreling down the crowded streets, in the heavy electronic beats erupting like great beasts from basement clubs, in the wind whistling through dark alleys, and in the rain as it drops on to the city like so many falling stars. Two years ago, I stumbled into the city, half starved and afraid, and I couldn't hear the song. My heart beat louder than the music.
Answer:
If you listen carefully, you can hear the song of the city. It's in the sharp, raucous laughter of the kids barreling down the crowded streets, in the heavy electronic beats erupting like great beasts from basement clubs, in the wind whistling through dark alleys, and in the rain as it drops onto the city like so many falling stars.
Explanation:
A setting in literature refers to the time and place a story happened. The description of the city in the above excerpt is of a place bustling with activities. These are seen in descriptions such as the song playing in the city, the electronic beats, and the raucous laughter of the kids.
Clubs are known to operate at night and the electronic beats emanating from there show that the city remained busy even into the night. All of these sounds are noisy and clearly indicate that the city was a very busy place filled with activities and noise.

Explanation:
Beatles' drummer, Richard Starkey, was born in Liverpool, England, so he is known to the world as Ringo Starr.
What is wrong with the sentence?
Answer:
"Beatles' drummer, Richard Starkey, was born in Liverpool, England, so he is known to the world as Ringo Starr", has a clear and concrete writing error. Thus, the word "so" has no reason to be in said wording, as the fact that Richard Starkey was born in Liverpool is in no way a condition for the world to know him as Ringo Starr. In other words, the word "so" as a connector within the sentence does not follow logical parameters, as it does not deal with a cause-consequence situation.

Answer:
Her porcelain doll, a rare collector’s item, was sold at auction.
✔ nonrestrictive
Chris went to Seattle to visit his aunt, a professional chef.
✔ nonrestrictive
The boy with the baseball cap would like to have a turn.
✔ restrictive
Explanation:
A phrase is said to be restrictive (or otherwise called essential), if the word it modifies is narrowed down and it describes which noun it is writing about. They do not have commas and they are essential to the meaning of the sentence.
On the other hand, a nonrestrictive phrase describes a word whose meaning is already clear. As a result of this, it is not essential to the meaning of a sentence, therefore commas are used.

If the limelight of a movie was on a character who had one defect, the scriptwriter might have been making an allusion to _____________.
Answer:
Achilles
Explanation:
A faulty character is likely to be an allusion to Achilles. This is because Achilles was a man who was bathed in the river Styx and was left invulnerable. However, he had a flaw. His heel was not washed in the river and it became a completely fragile place. For this reason, a character in a movie who has a single flaw might allude to Achilles.
It is important to remember that allusion is a figure of speech that allows a writer to make references to things, people and places that are not part of his/her text, but which have a special meaning when added to the text.
