Because context clues can help you find what a word means, so if you know what the suffix or prefix is, then you can use that to help find what the meaning of the word is.

A suffix is at the end of a word whereas a prefix is at the start of a word for example quietly=ly is the suffix
disapprove=dis is the prefix

lina2011 [118]

We are supposed to find the error in the sentence concerning subject-verb agreement.

Answer:

The students elected to lead our school beautification committee HAVE several inspiring ideas including a mural in the gym and the relocation of the garbage cans from near the school entrance to behind the cafeteria.

Explanation:  

<u>What we must realize about the verb "to have" in the sentence is that its subject is not "committee". The ones who have inspiring ideas are actually the students. Therefore, the verb should agree with the subject "students", which is plural. The form "has" is singular, and that is why it is incorrectly used. </u>The correct form is:

The students elected to lead our school beautification committee HAVE several inspiring ideas including a mural in the gym and the relocation of the garbage cans from near the school entrance to behind the cafeteria.

Ame three supernatural powers that people thought witches had.
bulgar [2K]
In Shakespeare’s time people believed in witches. They were people who had made a pact with the Devil in exchange for supernatural powers. If your cow was ill, it was easy to decide it had been cursed. If there was plague in your village, it was because of a witch. If the beans didn’t grow, it was because of a witch. Witches might have a familiar – a pet, or a toad, or a bird – which was supposed to be a demon advisor. People accused of being witches tended to be old, poor, single women. It is at this time that the idea of witches riding around on broomsticks (a common household implement in Elizabethan England) becomes popular.

There are lots of ways to test for a witch. A common way was to use a ducking stool, or just to tie them up, and duck the accused under water in a pond or river. If she floated, she was a witch. If she didn’t, she was innocent. She probably drowned. Anyone who floated was then burnt at the stake. It was legal to kill witches because of the Witchcraft Act passed in 1563, which set out steps to take against witches who used spirits to kill people.

King James I became king in 1603. He was particularly superstitious about witches and even wrote a book on the subject. Shakespeare wrote Macbeth especially to appeal to James – it has witches and is set in Scotland, where he was already king. The three witches in Macbeth manipulate the characters into disaster, and cast spells to destroy lives. Other magic beings, the fairies, appear in A Midsummer Night’s Dream. Elizabethans thought fairies played tricks on innocent people – just as they do in the play.
