Which sentence presents a faulty either/or argument? Perhaps more teachers would continue to teach, rather than leave the field,

if their salaries were higher. If we value education as much as we claim, we should put our money where our mouth is and raise teachers’ salaries. Increasing teacher salaries might attract more competent individuals to the profession. If we don’t double teachers’ salaries, then the public education system in this country will fail.

The correct answer is "Increasing teacher salaries might attract more competent individuals to the profession."

An "either-or" argument or a false dilemma is a statement where 2 choices are presented and one of them has to be right end the other wrong. However, there are more than those 2 choices and even both of the 2 presented choices may be right or wrong.

The picked phrase does not represent "an either-or" phrase but rather presents itself as the "only" solution to the problem of improving education.

Andre45 [30]

Answer:

Adjective clause; sport.

Explanation:

An adjective clause is a type of clause that modifies or describes a noun in a sentence. It is also known as a relative clause and is a dependent clause, meaning, it cannot stand on its own as a full sentence.

In the given sentence, the subordinate clause used is an adjective clause that modifies the word "sport". The subordinate clause is "that is played in the countries around the world", containing a verb and a subject, thus making it an adjective clause and also modifying the noun "sport".

Thus, the correct answer is the last option.

Exercise 2 Draw one line under each simple subject and two lines under each compound predicate in the following sentences.
Mars2501 [29]

The given statement has the word audience as a subject. And compound predicates are drama and third.

Live theater heightens <u>drama </u>and adds a <u>third </u>dimension for the <u>audience</u>.

What is the subject and compound predicate?

In grammar, the subject can be defined as the word or phrase that describes the noun, pronouns, as well as noun phrases that occur before the verb in the sentences. It also describes the position in a sentence as well as controls the phrase in the sentences. And the verb is the action in the sentence, or it links the sentence through information.

Similarly, compound predicates always share the same subject, provided two or more verbs occur in the sentence. It is joined by a conjunction in a sentence like and, neither, nor, either, or, etc. In the given statement, the word audience defines the subject whereas the words like drama and third define the compound predicates.

Helllo,
Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

The “American Dream” has been a recurring theme in President Trump’s rhetoric. He invoked it in announcing his bid for the presidency, saying, “Sadly, the American Dream is dead. But if I get elected president, I will bring it back bigger and better and stronger than ever before and we will make America great again.” He celebrated its return in a speech in February to the Conservative Political Action Conference, saying, “The American Dream is back bigger, better and stronger than ever before.”

And recently, he has invoked it in his law-and-order-focused tweets, saying: “Suburban voters are pouring into the Republican Party because of the violence in Democrat run cities and states. If Biden gets in, this violence is ‘coming to the Suburbs’, and FAST. You could say goodbye to your American Dream!”

Of course, the American Dream is part of the political discourse for both the left and the right. Richard Nixon invoked the American Dream in accepting the Republican presidential nomination in 1968. Democrat Jimmy Carter mentioned it in his inaugural address in 1977. Ronald Reagan invoked it in his 1980s prime-time addresses to the nation. Barack Obama embraced it in his book “The Audacity of Hope.”
