Answer:
It's either A or D but I'm leaning more towards A.
Explanation:
If the root hydro- means "water", then the word that means "an electrical instrument used to monitor underwater sounds" is called a hydrophone. A hydrophone is a kind of microphone that is specifically used to detect and record sound waves underwater.
Let's break this sentence down:
The Gerards consider their son a genius.
- Prepositional phrases: There are no prepositional phrases since there isn't neither a preposition nor an object altogether.
- The subject is <em>The Gerards.</em>
- The verb within the sentence is <em>consider.</em>
- There are two complements in the sentence which are the direct and object complement: <em>their son</em> is the direct object and <em>a genius</em> is the object complement. Remember to ask yourself what refers the verb of the sentence. Moreover, object compliments always follow a direct object to rename it or state what it has become. In order to analize the example above, you should ask yourself the following:
- What do the Gerards consider? <em>their son.</em>
- What do they consider about their son? <em>a genius.</em>
The word "running" is an appropriate word to fill in the blank in the sentence.
We can arrive at this answer as follows:
- For a word to be added to the above sentence, you must first assess the context of the sentence.
- In this context, we can see that something related to the water supply makes the countryside something inconvenient.
- Furthermore, we know that this situation does not exist in the city, which makes the urban environment have advantages over rural life.
- We can also notice that the missing word in the sentence starts with the letter "r" and ends with the letter "g".
All this, allows us to conclude that the word "running" is the word that is missing in the sentence. This can be seen because when this word is added, the sentence remains consistent and with a clear and understandable context.
