Answer: B) kristoff worked hard on his diet, but he could not resisted snacking.

Explanation: The tense of a verb tells you when a person did something or when something existed or happened. In English, there are three main tenses: the present, the past, and the future. A verb tense shift error occurs when the times of the verbs used in a sentence or paragraph are not consistent. From the given options, the one that has a verbe tense shift error is option B, because after the verb in past form "could" it can't be another verb in past, the correct sentence would be: "kristoff worked hard on his diet, but he could not resist snacking."

The sentence that possesses a verb tense shift error is option B. What makes this sentence erroneous is that part "could not resisted". Since the linking verb is already in the past form which is "could", then the verb next to it should only take the regular or present form. This should be "could not resist" only.

Answer:

Option A and B

Explanation:

The simple in-text citation includes the surname of the authors, then the year of publication and at the end is the page number of the citation. The in-text citation is always placed at the end of the sentence. This means that the mistake is not including the year of publication and placing the citation at the end of the sentence. So in the nutshell the correct answer here is option A (Not including the year of publication) and option B (Placing the in-text citation in the wrong place).

jeyben [28]

For Laurie, baking cookies was a common thing, designed to bring a little happiness on random days. However, after meeting Maurice, cooking cookies and became a way to show care and affection among people.

Although you haven't shown it, we can see that this question is about the book "An Invisible Thread." When we read this book, we have access to the following information:

  • The book tells the story of how Laurie and Maurice met and ended up impacting each other's lives.
  • Maurice was a boy who lived in a violent and dangerous place.
  • His mother was involved in drug trafficking and he and his brother lived without any form of adult supervision.
  • Furthermore, they had no money, were very hungry, and had no prospects for life.
  • Laurie was a woman who had an ordinary life, with nothing very significant.
  • However, Laurie had a stable life and had better economic and social opportunities than Mauricie.
  • One day they met and Laurie decided to help Maurice overcome the difficulties in his life.
  • Maurice taught Laurie several lessons about life, caring for people, and happiness.

Maurice gave a new meaning to many things in Laurie's life, such as baking cookies, which for her was just something silly, that although it brought happiness, it was nothing special, but Maurice showed how baking cookies is affectionate and bonding between people.
