5 0

Answer:

Your answer would be C.

Explanation:

Sentence contains the participle phrase <em>walking on the beach.</em> A participle phrase will begin with a present or past participle. In this case, it begins with a present participle <em>walking.</em> As all phrases require two or more words, a participle phrase might include objects and/or modifiers that complete the thought (the PP <em>on the beach). </em>

Moreover, participle phrases always function as adjectives, adding description to the sentence. In the sentence above, the participle phrase modifies the noun <em>Delores. </em>

Answer:

Explanation:

The big question that the magistrate asked meursault finally was if he believed in God, to which he replied he didn't

Meursault prison cell looked tiny, dirty and unkempt, although it had the view of an ocean. And no, that's not what he expected.

The most difficult item for meursault to lose other than his freedom were his cigarettes and Marie

Having a memory is an advantage because it gave him the ability to think about the past, and that's a new thing for him

The first impression he had of the jury was that he were innocent. He then proceeded to describing them as strangers on a streetcar
