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.

vredina [299]

In the passage that is referenced, Scrooge goes home from work and gets uneasy. He checks each room, looks under the sofa and table, and double-locks himself in. This happened before the appearance of the first Ghost.

<h3>What is a Foreshadow?</h3>

Simply put, a foreshadowing is a premonition, an advance indication of something that is about to happen, usually an unpleasant experience.
