Which sentence is written correctly?

English
1 answer:
Sphinxa [80]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The sentence that is written correctly is:

A. Karina, the new student body president, was previously the class treasurer.

Explanation:

The structure "the new student body president" functions as an appositive in the sentence. That means its goal is to give further information or an explanation about something that was just mentioned - in this case, about Karina. We now know that Karina is the new student body president. Appositives should have commas immediately before and after them. Those commas help establish that this in an extra piece of information included in the sentence. With that in mind, we can see that letter A is the best option:

A. Karina, the new student body president, was previously the class treasurer.

Rewrite the sentences to eliminate wordiness and redundancy: “The balloon quickly rocketed up into the really cold air. We were
sukhopar [10]

The balloon rocketed into the sky.   Though we were frightened, everything ended up being fine.

  • The word "quickly" can be removed because speed is implied with the word "rocketed"
  • The phrase "into the really cold air" can be removed because it is irrelevant to what's happening.  It can be replaced by "into the sky"
  • Now "up" can be removed because "into the sky" implies that the balloon went upwards.
  • Either the word "scared" or "frightened" can be removed because they're synonyms (I chose to remove "scared")
  • "Because it was moving really fast" can be removed because the use of the word "rocketed" beforehand already implies that the balloon was moving fast.
  • Lastly , I just reworded and conjoined some of the sentences to make them read more clearly though this isn't necessary. (I changed the third sentence from "However, it was all good in the end," to "everything ended up being fine." I also combined the second and third sentences, adding "though" in front of the second sentence to make it a dependent clause)

Making errors in language learning is a sign of progress. True or False?
Vaselesa [24]
Depends on how major or minor the errors are. If the errors are due to lack of knowledge then it isn't a sign of progress but if less errors are being made and they are small ones progress may be shown.
