Answer:

D

Explanation:

A participle is a verb that acts as an adjective. Dark, billowing clouds often are signs of a bad storm on the way is the ONLY sentence that has an adjective in it. Hope this helps!

Answer:

D) Dark, billowing clouds often are signs of a bad storm on the way.

Explanation:

The present particle refers to an adjective which derives from a verb and contains the ending <em>-ing</em>. As a result, the adjective <em>billowing</em>, which means filled with air and distended outward, is in the present participle form.

The rest of the options are incorrect because the<em> -ing</em> forms are gerunds and gerund phrases, which function as nouns and objects, not adjectives.

Levart [38]

The correct answer is B indeed. It is an example of plain folks because the speaker appeals to the citizens of his town, and to the knowledge that he shares with the other members of the community. This strategy is quite basic, as shown by this example, because the author makes a claim that most people would agree with, without actually providing evidence or a series of logical arguments.
