Any piece of writing is shaped by external factors before the first word is ever set down on the page. These factors are referred to as the rhetorical situation, or rhetorical context, and are often presented in the form of a pyramid.
Drawing of three two-sided arrows in the shape of a pyramid. Where points meet on top, "Purpose"; bottom left, "Author"; bottom right, "Audience." "Message" is in the middle.
The three key factors–purpose, author, and audience–all work together to influence what the text itself says, and how it says it. Let’s examine each of the three in more detail.
The correct answer is D. I surf
Explanation:
A present tense verb refers to verb forms used to express actions that occur in the present or now, this also applies to facts. This tense includes the simple present tense, in this, verbs follow the infinitive form without "to" and in the case of the third person singular (she, he, it) verbs end in -s or -es. For example "I go to the park every day" or "She eats a sandwich".
The sentence "I surf" contains a present tense verb that is "surf" because this verb follows the infinitive form "to surf" (without to) that is used in the present tense. Also, other options are not correct because "I went surfing" and "I surfed" contain a past tense verb and "I will go surfing" contains a future tense verb.
