Answer:

1. The author had only a short lunch period, and it was difficult to clean up dishes after heating lunch using saucepans.

2. For a week, I battled with messy saucepans and sticky wooden spoons to heat my lunch each day.

3. Both texts state that it is easy to take for granted things that make life easier.

Explanation:

1. The microwave became an "essential part" of the narrator's everyday life for it simplifies the way he takes his lunch. It easily heats it up for him and then with not much dishes to be cleaned after. Considering the short time he has for lunch, he could easily heat his food in the oven and have it. But when it stopped working, he had to go through the whole process of cooking manually, battling "with messy saucepans and sticky wooden spoons" everyday just to have his lunch.

2. The statement about him battling with the "saucepans and sticky wooden spoons" to get his lunch ready supports the author's claim of the oven being an "essential part" of his life.

3. Both passages show how we tend to take the things that help us out for granted. The very ideas of the first passage about pencils and the second passage about ovens both show that whatever their uses are, we tend to think it is normal and nothing significant until they stop working or are no longer available.

A grammatical morpheme is a word or word ending that makes a sentence grammatically what?

FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

A grammatical morpheme is a word or word ending that makes a sentence grammatically correct.

Explanation:

A grammatical morpheme can be an entire word or simply a group of letters that helps show another word's grammatical category, tense, number, etc. The definition may be strange, but it is easily understood with an example:

- I watch TV yesterday.

Is the sentence above grammatically correct? No. And that is because the word "yesterday" indicates that the action expressed by the verb happened in the past, but the verb itself is missing the grammatical morpheme that indicates the past tense. In this case, since "watch" is a regular verb, the morpheme that is missing is -ed:

- I watched TV yesterday.
