Mark Twain uses humor and character development as a portraying theme in his books. Much of his humor is the tricks and mischief that the children in his book create. This humor shows the children being childish and a little bit foolish as well. As the story progresses, the characters begin to loose some of that foolishness and grow up. This is after they are faced with conflict and must make adult decisions.

“In separate columns on a sheet of paper write a complete subject and the completepredicate of these words”
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

In the first sentence the subject is "urban sprawl" and the rest of the sentence is the predicate. In the second sentence, the subject is "Growing families" and the rest of the sentence is the predicate.

The subject of a sentence is the term that suffers or provokes the action of the verb of the sentence, while the predicate is all the terms that deny or affirm something about the subject.

In this case, it is important that you know which term is the verb of each sentence, as this term is essential for the subject to be found.

The verb is the term that indicates an action, or a state of the individual. In the two sentences presented above, the verbs are "to harm" and "to want."

Knowing which term is the verb of the sentence, you can find the subject and predicate as follows:

  • To find the subject, ask who is causing or suffering the action of seeing.
  1. In the first sentence: Who is harming the habitat? Who is harming the habitat is urban expansion. In this case, urban expansion is the subject of the sentence.
  2. In the second sentence: Who wants bigger houses and yards? Growing families. Hence, growing families are the subject of the sentence.
  • To find the predicate, identify what is being said about the subject of each sentence.
  1. In the first sentence: What is urban expansion doing? It's harming the habitat.
  2. In the second sentence: what do growing families want? They want bigger houses and yards.

Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

Hounds= Hunting Dogs

Explanation:

Hounds are used to pursue running game (rabbits, deer) and gun dogs are used to locate camouflaged hiding game (grouse, pheasant) or retrieve flying game (ducks). Hunting hounds bring the hunter to the prey. They have keen noses that detect the presence of game and track the scent.
