Answer:

D. He

Explanation:

<em>The participle phrase is here modifying the subject "he". It assists in the amendment of the gerund phrase i.e. 'his laughing action" where the participle phrase("he shook his head and said") acts as an adjective to revamp or modify the previous idea.</em> As we know that adjectives always function as a transformer of a noun or pronoun and thus adds to meaning and description to the sentence which best illustrates the use of participle phrase here.<em> Thus, we could conclude that here the participle phrase modifies the pronoun "he".</em>

Hi there, I’m doing a survey. Why do you think rituals sometimes lose their value and becomes routines? (In your opinion, in a p
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

I suppose it depends on what the ritual is. In most Religions, if a person is performing (what I think is Ritual), and they believe it wholeheartedly, it is never going to get old. I imagine it depends on the Religion & Ritual.

Other sorts of “rituals” like how many times you brush your bottom and top teeth could become more like “obsessive compulsive disorder”. Some people I know treat their IPhone like a sort of “ritualistic” activity, looking and checking without any real need.

It will depend upon what the Ritual is, and what it is used in or for.

Narrative Writing: Removing Irrelevant Details paragraph below has one sentence that is not relevant to the narrative. Cross out
Pavel [41]

Answer:

Last Saturday was a perfect day. My cousins Reid and Bella came to visit. We decided to go to the park for a picnic. The sun shone brightly and sparkled on the water as we laid out a colorful blanket near the lake. We told jokes and laughed as we ate our lunch under the shade of the trees. My favorite sandwich is grilled cheese, but we didn't bring any of those. After lunch, Reid took out his new dragon-shaped kite, and we watched as it rose into the sky and danced among the clouds. As we watched the kite fly higher and higher, we all agreed that this was the best day ever!

(Bold = delete sentence)

Explanation:

The narrator is talking about his/her day and what s/he and his/her cousins did at the park. Grilled cheese sandwiches are irrelevant to the story because they didn't even bring it to the picnic.
