Read the excerpt from on women rights to vote speech by susan b anthony
which quotation correctly uses ellipsis?

And when . . . people enter into a free government, they do not barter away their natural rights; they simply pledge themselves to protect each other in the enjoyment of them, through prescribed judicial and legislative tribunals.

Explanation:

Ellipsis is an intentional omission of a section of a text, which is achieved by the use of three dots. Sections that are omitted can be understood from the context, or convey the same idea which was already mentioned in the text. It is important to note that these three dots do not change the overall meaning.

In this example, the quotation that correctly uses the ellipsis is the second one, as it does not cause ambiguity, but only shortens the section. The overall meaning can be easily understood.

in the quotation from passage, connie willis states that literature is a way for authors from the past to communicate with readers of today. we can read their stories, books, and other texts to learn lessons about life. willis refers to these lessons as messages “from beyond the grave.” willis has a favorable viewpoint about the timelessness of literature.
