Participle phrase phrase is underlined.

<h3>What is Phrases?</h3>

The type of phrase underlined exists a participial phrase.A participial phrase may be a bunch of words containing a participle and the modifiers and pronouns or thing words that work as the coordinate objects, roundabout objects, or complements of the movement or condition communicated within the participle, such as: Removing his coat, Jack hurried to the waterway.

Phrases exist as a combination of two or more terms that can assume the position of a noun, a verb, or a modifier in a sentence. Phrases are various from clauses because while dependent and independent clauses both include a subject and a verb, phrases do not.

A participle phrase exists as a group of words including a participle, modifier, and pronoun or noun phrases. The Pronoun/Noun will perform the recipient of the action in the phrase. You require a comma after a Participle Phrase if it arrives at the beginning of a sentence and the following phrase exists as a complete sentence.

Form the possessive of plural nouns that do not end in s by adding _____. ' 's s' s
tester [92]

The correct answer is B. 's

Explanation:

In the English language, one of the most common ways to express a noun owns something is by using the apostrophe. However, this follows strict rules, indeed in the case of singular nouns that do not end in "s" the possessive is formed by adding the apostrophe followed by an "s" or 's, for example in Maria's house. On the other hand, if the singular noun already ends in "s" only the apostrophe is added as in Charles' house. In the case of plural nouns, similar rules apply as if the noun does not end in "s" the apostrophe and the "s" need to be added as in children's needs or men's ideas. Therefore, the possessive of plural nouns that do not end in s are formed by adding 's.

Can somebody help me write a speech about why we shouldn't have the death penalty anymore. You don't have to write it for me!
Over [174]

Answer:Ok i will help you here are some reasons why

Explanation:The death penalty is irreversible. Absolute judgments may lead to people paying for crimes they did not commit. Texas man Cameron Todd Willingham was executed in Texas in 2004 for allegedly setting a fire that killed his three daughters. Following his execution, further evidence revealed that Willingham did not set the fire that caused their deaths. But it came too late.There is no credible evidence that the death penalty deters crime more effectively than a prison term. In fact, evidence reveals the opposite.

Since abolishing the death penalty in 1976, Canada’s murder rate has steadily declined and as of 2016 was at its lowest since 1966.The 2006 execution of Angel Nieves Diaz, by a so-called ‘humane’ lethal injection, took 34 minutes and required two doses. Doctors have said that it is likely Diaz’ death was painful.

Other brutal methods of execution used around the world include hanging, shooting and beheading. The nature of these deaths only continues to perpetuate the cycle of violence and may not alleviate the pain already suffered by the victims’ family.Executions are often undertaken in an extremely public manner, with public hangings in Iran or live broadcasts of lethal injections in the US. According to UN human rights experts, executions in public serve no legitimate purpose and only increase the cruel, inhuman and degrading nature of this punishment.

“All executions violate the right to life. Those carried out publicly are a gross affront to human dignity which cannot be tolerated,” said Hassiba Hadj Sahraoui, Amnesty International’s Deputy Director for the Middle East and North Africa.In 2017 two countries – Guinea and Mongolia – abolished the death penalty for all crimes.

Today, 106 countries (the majority of the world’s states) have turned their backs on the death penalty for good.Those that continue to execute are a tiny minority standing against a wave of opposition.

There are countless arguments for and against the death penalty. In an imperfect world where we can never be sure we have ever got the “worst of the worst” is it ever justified to take a life?

Read this sentence from the excerpt from Twelve Years a Slave:
attashe74 [19]
I always like to think of figurative meaning as deeper meaning: what is the narrator really trying to get the reader to understand? Once you have your answer, think about the key words in that excerpt that helped you uncover the figurative meaning-- these will always be figurative devices, so you're already half way through this question. (pro tip: stick to the text to uncover it-- don't stray to far from the information you are being provided)

Lastly, you're being asked to identify literary devices here, do you notice any symbols? Something that usually stands for something else that might relate to that deeper/figurative meaning? Also, think about how the way in which the author phrased these symbols impacted the overall deeper meaning.
