Answer:
Even though Tina told her to skip it, Lexie had a nagging feeling in her gut that if she missed her brother's spelling bee, he would be extremely disappointed in her as well as her parents. After a half an hour of going through the list of pros and cons she had written, she called Tina and told her that although she truly did want to go to the show with them, she thought that her family should always come before friends. Tina completely understood and when Jess heard the news, she was disappointed but came to terms with Lexie's decision. As soon as Lexie arrived at the spelling bee competition, her brother's face lit up with pure happiness and joy when he noticed that Lexie was there with their parents. <em>This was the right decision.</em> Lexie thought while she cheered on her brother. At the end of the championship, her brother won and they all went out to celebrate.
Answer:
D. Linking verb
Explanation:
Verbs are words that express actions, occurrences, and states of being.
Transitive verbs are verbs that require an object (the recipient of the action expressed by the verb). <em>To become </em>is not a transitive verb as it can't have an object. This is why it is an intransitive verb used as a linking verb. This is its main purpose, which is why option D is the one that best describes it.
Linking verbs are verbs that provide additional information about the subject by connecting it to a predicate adjective or predicate noun. Just like the verbs <em>to be </em>and <em>to seem, to become </em>is a true linking verb. In the given case, <em>Frank </em>is the subject of the second independent clause, and the words that describe him are <em>class president. </em>These words are a predicate noun (predicate nominative). <em>Became </em>connects these parts of the clause, which is why it's a linking verb.
