A. It is the predicate of the sentence.

In my opinion, the correct answer is A. <span>It is the predicate of the sentence. The verb phrase in this sentence is "are invited to stay". It is a phrase and not just a regular verb because it has its own modifier ("to stay") that describes or completes it, providing additional information. This predicate is in passive voice because the subject is actually the one that undergoes the action (instead of doing it, as subjects normally do), whereas the agent (the one who actually does the action) is unmentioned here.</span>

10 PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT Write a story of 200-250
Sergio [31]

Answer:

Sophia's life flashed before her eyes. "Jessica! Jessica help me up!" Sophia's fingers were sliping. If Jessica didn't help her out Sophia would fall to her doom.

"No way! You stole Daniel from me and now you must pay!" Jessica roared.

Sophia scream right back at her, "I did not! He is my best friend! That's all we are! Please- AHHH!!!" Sophia hung only by one hand. She had tears running down her face. All she had done was hug Daniel. 2 fingers left on the cliff and Jessica still didn't care. "Jessica help me! Please! I'll explain everything!"

Jessica looked at Sophia. She noticed how honest and weak she looked. She grabbed Sophia's arm and hauled her up. "Start speaking before I push you off this mountain."

"I've been friends with Daniel since I was 5. He is a brother to me. Jessica, I would NEVER love him any other way. Please, believe me. You can push me off now that you heard me." Sophia as trustworthy as ever stood there. Knowing that Jessica would push her off.

"Can you forgive me Sophia?"

"I'll always forgive you. No matter what you do."

"In that case..." Jessica pushed Sophia of the cliff.

It had been the most surprising thing that had ever happened to them, and probably ever would.

compare and contrast the themes and emotions described by Anne Bradstreet and Mary Rowlandson with those used by William Bradfor
Lelu [443]
The difference between the two are that the women most likely show more emotion in their writing, the women also probably talk about their children and love for them. The men would most likely write more about their adventures exploring, their hard work building the houses and running a farm. Similarities would include the hardships they included in their writing. While they would describe the hardships differently and the women may include more emotions, they both go into detail about the hard times and the Indian captivities.
