Answer:

1. There were <u><em>Fewer</em></u> outdoor sport fans in the past.

2. I drank <em><u>Less</u></em> water than she did at the last basketball competition.

3. I have <em><u>Less</u></em> than an hour to do this exercise.

4. We have <u><em>Less</em></u> time to go in for sports these days.

5. <em><u>Fewer</u></em> than thirty children each year participate in the chess tournament.

6. This athlete does F<em><u>ewer</u></em> workout on weekdays. He has a full time job at the Sports

Committee

Explanation:

Fewer is used for things that can be counted such as, kids, chairs, balloons, etc...

Less is used for singular mass nouns

Here’s a tip: A good way to test that a noun is truly uncountable is to try making a plural out of it.

<u>Example:</u> I told Cookie Monster to drink fewer/less <em><u>milks</u></em> or he would get sick?

Because Milk is a liquid, we can't count it. Making 'less' the proper word choice

<u>Example:</u> I told Cookie Monster to drink <u><em>less</em></u> milk or he would get sick?

I hope this helped!

What is an arpeggio?
maks197457 [2]

Answer:

An arpeggio is:

B. playing a series of chords in a particular order

Explanation:

All right here we go. This is a very difficult question because is not very clear. However, we need to remember what an arpeggio is. An arpeggio is a small scale of different notes arranged in a degrading or increasing pattern of order. So, the answer that guards more similarity with the concept is: b) because c and d say it is discontinuous, which is not the nature of the arpeggio. So we have only a and b. But a is not the case because it says simultaneously. When arpeggio has order.

He eat food tag question​
ad-work [718]

Answer:

He eats food, doesn't he?

Explanation:

Tag questions are used to turn statements into questions. We use them to check the information we think may be true.

They are formed by using an auxiliary verb (e.g.<em> be or have</em>) and a subject pronoun (e.g. <em>I, we, they</em>). The auxiliary verb we will use in this sentence is <em>be</em>, and the pronoun we will use is <em>he, </em>because that is the subject of the original statement.

If the original statement is positive, the tag question is negative, and the other way around. Because the statement <em>He eats food</em> is positive, the tag question will be negative. That's how we will get the question:

<em>He eats food, doesn't he?</em>
