Answer:
The author's intent is to inform the reader.
Explanation:
The author hopes to inform the reader of the consequences of poaching and to discourage them from taking large prey (you'll end up in jail for 3 months) or to harm a gameskeeper (charged with assult and possibly death).
So know the risks and 'be careful'.
Answer:
Participle: "reminding"
Modified: guide
Explanation:
A participle is a word that has verb characteristics and can also function as both a verb and an adjective. They are also used to modify the words in a sentence.
In the given sentence "[R]eminding the younger children to walk carefully, the guide led the group into the cave", the participle is "reminding", taking the "-ing" form of the verb. And the word it modifies is "the guide".
Thus, the correct answer is
Participle: "reminding"
Modified: guide
Answer:
The past continuous is formed from the past tense of "to be" with the base of the main verb plus the ending "-ing" from the verb.
Some examples
• The sun was shining every day that summer.
• At 6 o'clock, I was eating dinner.
• At noon, he was arriving.
So every day I wove on the great loom, but every night by torchlight I
unwove it; and so for three years I deceived the Akhaians.
<span>This line shows that Penelope is clever because at the beginning of the
passage, Penelope requests that the suitors leave her alone and not ask her to
marry until she finishes weaving a death shroud she had already started because
if she were not allowed to finish, her efforts at beginning the shroud would
have been in vain. To this appeal to their
emotions, the suitors agree. And,
knowing the suitors would respect her request, at the end of a day of weaving,
she would undo all she had done in the daytime thereby keeping the suitors at
bay for 3 years. </span>
