<span>The reason Stuart was called "Fats" was that he was skinny.</span>
The correct answer is "her". This is because an antecedent basically means to whom does the pronoun refer and the pronoun has to refer to Miss Kensington. This is why the correct form is her.
<span>An adjective and adverb phrase differ in that an adverb modifies verbs, adjectives, and other adverbs. To help remember the difference, the word itself has “verb” inside it, and adverbs tend to end in “-ly.” “Slowly,” “loudly,” and “happily” are all adverbs. examples </span>
1. All action verbs can be paired with an adverb. If you do something, you do it well not good. For example: Turtles walk slowly.
2. An adverb can’t modify a noun. The trick here is that not all –ly words are adverbs, some are adjectives too. For example, it’s correct to say the bright table (adjective) or the brightly colored table (compound adjective) but not the brightly table. On the other hand, it is correct to say “the friendly puppy.”
3. Use this simple trick to decide when to use an adverb or an adjective: If the construction works with the verb “to be”, it is correct. For example, the puppy is friendly works because friendly is an adjective.
4. Verbs that describe senses, including feel, seem and appear, require adjectives. For example, don’t feel bad or that sounds good. By using the “to be” test, it’s easy to see that Tim feels bad. (Tim is bad) is correct, but Tim feels badly (Tim is badly) isn’t.
5. Adjectives or predicate adjectives are required by linking verbs that do not describe actions. These adjectives modify and refer back to a noun or pronoun at the beginning of a sentence. Examples include: I feel sick and Julie was anxious.
Dr. Faustus is a story, created by Marlowe a contemporary of William Shakespeare, about a man who sells his soul to the devil in exchange for magician power. Using flexibility and and poetic effect in drama, some of the intentions of this autor in creating meaning by associating Dr. Faustus magic are the following:
1. To follow the medieval practice of humorous, clownish and boisterous amusement
2. To show how the three knowledges of medicine, law and theology can be joined in one.
3. To make an emphatic representation of the struggle between God and the devil for the fate of an individual human soul.
4. To create a contrast between illusion and reality through Faustus’ use of magic.
5. To oppose Faustus' desire for knowledge with his ignorance of God and morality.
6. To enhance black magic, greatly attracted by Faustus.
7. To show us the conflict between human aspiration and human limitation.
I believe the answer is D, because "author and you" questions typically make you have to use information that isn't directly said in the passage.
