Question

Select the correct text in the passage. Identify the pair of coordinate adjectives in the passage. There was never a doubt in my mind that Maggie Flint was one of the most vicious, cruel girls I have ever known. She was always mean to the newer students and used her position to bully everyone. I would have never believed that she was capable of any compassion. But then I saw her taking care of a crippled race horse. She bathed him, groomed him, and even took him for strolls in the park. Everyone knew that the horse was too severely injured to race, but that didn’t bother Maggie. She showed surprising compassion.

Answer 2

Identify the pair of coordinate adjectives in the passage.

Answer:

vicious, cruel

Explanation:

Coordinate adjectives are words that describe the same noun and are usually equal in importance.

The adjectives vicious, cruel are coordinate adjectives because they describe the same noun girls. They are equal in importance. We can also insert the conjunction and between them: 'one of the most vicious and cruel girls'. This also proves that these are coordinate adjectives.

When the conjunction and does not work between two adjectives, they are not coordinate adjectives.
