Answer:

D) The children were roaming through the field without a care in the world.

B) The tired old dog was searching for water.

Explanation:

A present participle is a word that ends with the suffix "-ing" and a verb is usually used to show the action done in a sentence.

Therefore, from the above sentence, the sentence that uses a present participle as part of a verb is option D because the word "roaming" as used in the sentence shows that an action was taking place.

True or False:

<u><em>False</em></u>

Most <u>religious terms</u> in English come from <u>Latin origin</u>. These terms were introduced during the <u>Roman Conquest</u> (43-84 AD) through the Romans' main language: Latin. Most of the Celtic and Anglo-Saxon religions that were practiced were slowly suppressed by <u>Christianity</u>. This process was officially achieved in the <u>year 597 </u>in which Augustine of Canterbury was sent by Gregory the Great with the intention of fully evangelizing England's population.
