English

Answer:

D) <u>Because David loved adventure</u>, he resolved that one day he would explore the Alaskan wilderness.

Explanation:

A clause is a group of related words that have at least a subject and a verb. When the clause can stand on its own, and have full meaning, the clause is independent; but when it does not express a complete idea on its own, and therefore, needs another clause to make sense, it is dependent.

In Sentence D, while “he resolved that one day he would explore the Alaskan wilderness” is an independent clause, “Because David loved adventure” is a dependent clause because it does not express a complete idea on its own: this clause is meant to be part of a bigger sentence and not to stand alone as a full sentence.

Which sentence uses parentheses correctly?
lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

Her mother painted the room her favorite colors (pink and yellows).

Explanation:

You use parentheses to insert extra information that a statement would still be correct without. So you can't have parentheses around parts of a sentence that, if removed, would make the sentence incomplete.

The answer I chose here doesn't need to say that the mother's favourite colours are pink and yellow for the sentence to be complete, so it is stated in parentheses. Removing the part in parentheses would not make the sentence incomplete because the sentence still works without it.

In all the other statements, removing the part in parentheses would have the statements make no sense, which means that the parentheses are incorrectly placed.
