Which of the following limited topics would be appropriate for a short paper?
sattari [20]

Answer: The influence of Elvis on Rock and Roll

Explanation: A short paper is a small work in which the author chooses a topic that makes significant contributions. Nevertheless, it must have a maximum of 4 pages of content. To summarize the whole history of Rock and Roll in America or Elvis's life would most likely get out of topic. Therefore, the topic "The influence of Elvis on Rock and Roll" would be the most appropriate for a concise and well done short paper, since it would address both of the other topics in a precise manner.

Can someone please help me with this thanks
____ [38]

I will underline the <u>predicate nouns or pronouns</u> and mark in bolds the predicate adjectives. Remember: <em>predicate pronouns</em> are pronouns that are present in the predicate; <em>predicate nouns</em> follow the verb (and are nouns or noun phrases that renames or offers more information about the subject); <em>predicate adjectives follow a verb</em> and modify the subject of the sentence.

1. Itzhak Perlman <u>is a distinguished violinist.</u> (the noun phrase "a distinguised violinist" gives us more information about the subject "I. Perlman")

2. <u>Born in 1945</u>, Perlman <u>contracted polio at the age of four</u>. (Mr. Perlman was born in 1945 and he also contracted polio)

3. Perlman is also an award-winning teacher and conductor. (this is a compound predicate adjective: he is both a teacher and a conductor)

4. His playing style is enthusiastic, expressive, and flawless. (this predicate adjective describes Mr. Perlman's playing style)

5. When my friends and I listen to him play, we are amazed at his talent. (I  think this is the sentence without subject complements)

Help me to find simple present tense, technical terms, action verbs, passive voice, and technical language on this text? please
Nikitich [7]

Answer: simple present: is, have, are, occurs, has, exceeds

Technical terms: refractive index, natural phenomena, internal reflection, boundary surface, angle of incidence, internal influence, medium

Action verbs: travel, occurs, trapped, refract, reflect

Passive voice: is seen,

Explanation: There are some corrections needed: 1) ANGLE. An angle is the intersection of two lines. An ANGEL is a spiritual messenger from God.

2)Correct this question by saying either

Do you know how a mirage happens?

OR

Do you know how mirages happen?

(A Singular Subject usually requires an article, the or a, and the present tense verb must end with -s when the subject is s singular.)

3) The last sentence is incorrect. It should be changed from

When this light is seen by our eyes, the we will see it as if there are shadows of types of water which are called mirage.

To:

When this light is seen by our eyes, it is interpreted by the brain as a reflection in a pool of water. The appearance of a pool where there is no water is called a mirage.

Technical language can be very challenging. Some concepts do not have easy transition from one language to another. I hope this helps.
