Answer:
so you can get an education and get a diploma
Explanation:
Answer:
The lines that directly develop the idea that things are burden are:
When I was very tired, I chanced to go away to a little house by the sea
There was nothing in the house to demand care, to claim attention, to cumber my consciousness with its insistent, unchanging companionship
Explanation:
This question concerns the essay "The Tyranny of Things", by Elizabeth Morris, published in 1917. As the title suggests, the author discusses how chained we are to things. We wish to posses more and more, only to become enslaved in the end. Things need to be taken care of. Instead of serving us, they end up having us as their servant.
That is what the lines below mean. Morris's word choice is clear: tired, demand care, claim attention, cumber one's consciousness, insistent and unchanging companionship. Things are a burden. They drain us, suffocate us:
When I was very tired, I chanced to go away to a little house by the sea
There was nothing in the house to demand care, to claim attention, to cumber my consciousness with its insistent, unchanging companionship
The primary purpose of the story is
- to educate children about how to treat others
The main purpose of this story is to teach children the proper way of treating others. The goatherd was supposed to treat all of his herd well. He should not have shown them less care as those had stuck with him for a long time.
The story also teaches that as we treat others in a positive or negative way, others are observing and may judge us based on what they see. So we should be just and fair in the way we treat others.

Question 1
The correct answer is d.
The possessive nouns are nouns that we use to express that a person or an object belongs to someone or something. We usually make them by adding apostrophe ('s) on the noun itself:
<em>boy's</em>
<em>mum's</em>
<em>Kate's</em>
In this particular case, we can notice that the sentence d. My dream is that one day my garden will be just as beautiful and productive as Sandy's! has a possessive noun and it is Sandy's.
SANDY (noun) + 'S = SANDY'S (possesive noun)
The other examples show the use of the possessive PRONOUNS.
a. Everything I know about gardening I learned from <u>my</u> good friend Sandy.
b. When she showed me <u>her</u> big, healthy, vegetable garden and offered me some gardening tips, I decided to listen hard.
c. Then she taught me how to cultivate rich and healthy soil and helped me identify which types of plants are best for the environment in <u>my</u> yard.
Question 2
The correct answer is c.
Proper nouns express a <u>unique person/object and become with capital letters</u>. All the other are<u> common nouns</u> (garden, soil, environment).
Question 3
The correct answer is c.
The present participle is the form we get when we add 'ing' to the verb.
<em>dig + ing = digging </em>
...as it appears in the example: A few weeks later, when I was digging up seeds that had not even sprouted yet, Sandy came over to introduce herself with a basket of fresh produce from her garden.
