Answer:

The answers are

- The soldiers crept cautiously <u>through the tunnel.</u>

and

- I was informed that the bus would arrive <u>in 45 minutes.</u>

Explanation:

The reason why the first one is not a correct option is because it include more than just the prepositional phrase... <u>The man</u> is not part of the prepositional phrase, so since it is underlined in the option it's incorrect. Had it just ben <u>In the house</u> we would be having a different story right now XD

<span>The sentences that contain prepositional phrases in brackets are: 
1) (The man in the house) seemed to be asleep. 
2) </span><span>The soldiers crept cautiously (through the tunnel.)

</span><span>A prepositional phrase is defined as a set of words that lack a verb or a subject. If you see that some part of a sentence lacks either verb or subject and contains a preposition - it is a prepositional phrase. The first sentence lacks a verb, but there is a subject and preposition 'in'. The second sentence contains  preposition 'through' and object which is also a characteristics of prepositional phrase.</span>

Which excerpt from the modern translation of Beowulf most strongly reflects the half-line style of Old English poetry? a. Nobody
earnstyle [38]

Answer:

d. will go and ask him

about your coming here, then hurry back

Explanation:

In Old English poetry, a line consists of two half-lines. A half-line is created by a pause (caesura) in the middle of each line. There are two accented syllables within each half-line.

This is clearly seen in this line from Beowulf, an Old English epic poem:

<em>"will go and ask him</em>

<em>about your coming here, then hurry back."</em>

In this case, a comma is used to split the line into two half-lines.
