Answer:
These lines are quoted from the play "Cyrano de Bergerac" and said by the main protagonist Cyrano de Bergerac, addressed to Busybody.
Explanation:
These lines are from the play "Cyrano de Bergerac" by Edmond Rostand. It revolves around the hidden love story of the protagonist Cyrano for his cousin Roxane. But it did not have a happy ending nor is it a happy love story but rather a tragic story of hidden love.
The lines are said by Cyrano about his nose in Scene I. iv. He has a huge nose which prevents him from being confident and openly proclaiming his feelings for Roxane. Here, he is seen proudly boasting in front of everyone that his nose is better than anyone's, that "<em>a fine nose is the unfailing mark of a fine man, witty, good-natured, brave,/ Courteous and forgiving</em>." But in reality, he was conscious about it and thus had to hide his feelings for Roxane too.

Explanation:
The central and the most important idea of reading the passage is the main idea of the work.
The perspective from which the story is narrated to us is the point of view through which the author highlights his message.
The reason for which a particular work is created is the author's purpose as a literary work always contains either an autobiographical element or social issue which he/she wishes to depict.
The relationship between two or more events in which the cause brings about the consequential effects either positive or negative.
Reading between the lines is the analysis of a particular work for better understanding and criticism.
The method of relating two or more objects is the comparison and contrast for better analysis.
The separation of a whole into parts is cited as Inference for better clarity of the events that occurred throughout the story.
To find as many relationships as possible within or between texts is the ability to connect the character's actions and the plot.
Answer:
A. Non sequitur
Explanation:
Non Sequitur is a type of logical fallacy that forms a conclusion or response that is not logically connected to the previous statement.
From the example, <em><u>Ever since the new casino opened unemployment in this city has gotten out of control </u></em>, there is no logical connection between the increased unemployment in the city and the new casino.
There would have been a logical conclusion if the statement was written like this,
<em>People who are caught gambling are fired, so since the new casino opened, the unemployment in the city has gotten out of control.</em>
<em></em>
People who are caught gambling are fired is the premise and connects the next statements about unemployment rates increasing and the new casino in town.
Therefore, the logical fallacy that takes place is Non sequitur as it has no logical connection to the premise.

Punctuation is crucial to enhance the readability and clarify the meaning of the text to the readers. It primarily functions to display the structural formation of a sentence which clarifies the meaning.
In the given question, the second sentence is most appropriately punctuated as it correctly employs semicolon(;) to link the two independent clauses('It...letter' and 'describe your...employer') which are firmly associated with each other in idea. Thus, <u>option C</u> is the correct answer.
