The correct answer would be B) No because there is only one negative in the sentence and that would be ''aren't'' since that means are not, so since that's only one, and not two, its not a double.

No, because a double negative would look like this. "There aren't none ripe bananas." Which, obviously, looks very weird.

Hope this helps! ☺♥

<span>Clark changed from a gangly, uncomfortable child to A. a happy, successful adult.
As opposed to his aunt who practically raised him, Clark changed positively, whereas her transition was quite negative. She changed from an accomplished musician into a farmlady who would never become satisfied about her life again. On the other hand, Clark's transition from a shy kid to a satisfied man is quite a different story.

1) This is always in the form of "to" + a verb-like word. This verbal unit in a sentence actually acts as a noun, adjective, or

The verbal unit is an infinitive.
