Hello.

The gerund phrase is "becoming a movie star".

A gerund is a non-finite verb form which functions as a noun, it can be modified by an adverb, and it can also take a direct object. The "-ing form" is used in English to indicate to the gerund specifically.  This is the case of "becoming" in your phrase.

I hope this helps.

The gerund phrase in this sentence would be "becoming a movie star" because of the verb "becoming" which acts as somewhat of an introduction to the rest of the phrase.

strojnjashka [21]

The words "cup," "pint," and "quart" refer to opportunities and resources. Robinson presents this idea more objectively, removing subjectivity from language.

<h3>Who was Sojourner Truth?</h3>
  • She was a former slave.
  • She was an activist for the rights of black people and black women.

When Sojourner Truth spoke the words "cup," "pint," and "quart" she was making an analogy about the resources and opportunities available to individuals.

She claimed that resources and opportunities for blacks were very few, especially for black women. These few opportunities and resources were depleted by those who had the most social facilities, that is, had larger cups, pints, and quarts.

Robinson reformulated this discourse more objectively, using words that showed the disadvantages of black women in a more direct and denotative way.
