In writing a sentence correctly, the following technicalities should be considered.

(1) The information should be clear

(2) Use transitional words

(3) Cautiously use subordinate clause

(4) construct the sentence in an active voice

(5) construct the sentence with the use of active verbs

(6) follow grammar rules- that includes diction and spelling. Avoid using highfalutin words.

In the case of the above sentence choice A is incorrect because instead of using the adverb "there", it had used "their" which is a pronoun. The use of "their" is only applicable if there is an object of possession. Choice C is also incorrect since the word "manageable" is spelled as "managable" which is technically wrong. Lastly, Choice D is incorrect because the words "calendar" and "manageable" are spelled as "calender" and " managable", respectively. The three declarative sentences did not follow the grammar rules.

Therefore, the answer is the second sentence: "This delivery calendar is only manageable if there are two of us." because it had followed the grammatical rules on sentence construction.

Writing the correct sentence is <em><u>This delivery calendar is only manageable if there are two of us</u></em>

<h2>Further explanation </h2>

Sentences are a fundamental part of any language. Fortunately, the rules of syntax and sentence structure in English are easy to understand, apply, and learn.

You need to understand a few things before learning the different types of English sentence structure and the rules of their preparation.

<em><u>Subject and Predicate </u></em>

The most basic English sentences usually consist of two parts: subject and predicate. The subject refers to who or what acts in the sentence. Predicate provides information related to or about the subject.

<em><u>Independent Clause and Dependent Clause </u></em>

The clause refers to groups of words that contain subject and predicate.

There is an independent clause, which can stand alone as a complete sentence. There is also a dependent clause, which must be combined with an independent clause to have meaning.

Subject, predicate, and clause can be found in any sentence. Meanwhile, direct objects and indirect objects only exist in a few sentences but are very commonly used and you need to recognize them.

Direct object refers to something that is directly given action by the subject. The indirect object is who or what receives the results of the action.

Four Basic Sentence Structures in English

There are short and simple sentences, there are also long, complicated, and complex sentences. Here are some types of sentences and the rules of their composition:

<em><u>Simple Sentence:</u></em> This sentence contains an independent clause.

<em><u>Compound Sentence:</u></em> This sentence is formed when one or several simple sentences are combined, usually with a conjunction like and, or, but, or a semicolon.

<em><u>Complex Sentence: </u></em>This sentence contains one independent clause and one dependent clause.

<em><u>Compound-complex sentence:</u></em> This sentence contains at least two independent clauses and one or several dependent clauses.

Word Composition Rules

English is very concerned with syntax, namely the arrangement and arrangement of words in sentences. If confused, the rules below can help.

<em><u>Adjective Before Noun, Adverb After Verb </u></em>

Adjectives are always placed before the noun or pronoun that is affected. Adverbs are usually placed after the verb they affect.

<em><u>Info is arranged in the order Place, Manner, Time </u></em>

When adding details to a sentence, remember the "place, manner, time" rule. Information is usually arranged in that order.

Indeed, occasionally you will hear a sentence that does not follow these rules, and that does not mean the grammar is wrong, but this is the standard sequence. Sometimes "time" is mentioned at the beginning of a sentence, usually as an emphasis.

<em><u>Don't Start Sentences with Conjunction </u></em>

In official English writing, avoid starting sentences with conjunctions.

The conjunction is conjunctions like and, but, yet, or, and because.

<em><u>Words of Question Put at the Beginning </u></em>

In English, certain words are always used in questions. These question words are how, when, why, what, where, etc., which are usually placed at the beginning of a sentence.

The author of this story uses first-person point of view.
Lyrx [107]

Answer:

Correct answer is B.

Explanation:

In the first person point of view, all the information about the story is based on what the author tells us. Everything we know is formed by what he thinks and says. it also gives the reader the access to feelings, emotions  and  thoughts. However the first person limits the reader knowledge about the other characters ideas and feelings. In this story the use of the first person limits the reader to know about Ezra's mom.

Which sentence shows the correct use of a common homophone?
REY [17]

The correct answer is "I think you left your biology notebook on the bleachers yesterday"

Explanation:

The words "your" and "you're" are homophones because their pronunciation is the same and they are written similarly. However, they have a different meaning because the word "your" shows possession, while the word "you're" (you are) comprises a subject and the verb to be. In this context, the only sentence that is completely correct and uses these homophones correctly is "I think you left your biology notebook on the bleachers yesterday" because in this the word "your" is used to show possession, which matches its meaning.
