Which sentence contains an error in subject-verb agreement?

English

Nezavi [6.7K]3 years ago

The answer to your question would be that the sentence that contains an error in subject-verb agreement is the following one: My mother or my father is going to pick me up from swim practice. That is, the correct option would be D.

Subject-verb agreement refers to the fact that the subject and the verb must agree with one another in number (singular or plural). Consequently, if the subject is singular, its verb must also be singular; if a subject is plural, its verb must also be plural. In this case, the subject is plural since it refers to two people (mother and father), so the verb must also be plural.

"D. My mother or my father is going to pick me up from swim practice" is the only sentence that contains an error in subject-verb agreement, but this is common.

How is 1st person perspective used in "Rules of the Game"by Amy Tan
navik [9.2K]

Explanation:

The first story, Rules of the Game by Amy Tan, has a first person point of view, but Tan also allows readers to view the daughter and mother at the same time. Just like other first person stories, the protagonist Waverly Jong is the narrator who tells us the story. As I read through the story, I am immersed into the story, which is one of the strengths of first person point of view. From the story,

It is very obvious. If the story was told using a different point of view, it will be changed drastically. For example, Waverly’s point of view represents the symbolism of “The art of invisible strength”, which means self control. If the story has a different point of view, the meaning of self control will become useless. And in the perspective of characterization, the point of view is also important. Since we see the story through Waverly’s eyes, we know what Waverly judges and thinks about the other characters, and what Waverly thinks about herself. She believes her accomplishment is based on her talent in chess, which leads to the climax rising action of Waverly running away. We see how Waverly was irritated by her mother, and again, if the story is not told by Waverly, we would not be able to understand that she did not mean to hurt her mother with the words of “Why do you have to use me to show off? If you want to show off, then why don’t you learn to play chess?” Or if the story is told in a third person point of view, like the old woman Waverly knocked into in the instance, we probably see a rude and unreasonable young girl who argues with her mother in the middle of a street.

PART A: What does paragraph 5 suggest about the "emotional well-being" of an individual with the median household income in 2008
Rom4ik [11]

The correct answer is; A. The average household in the US would be happier with a higher income.

Further Explanation:

Paragraph 5 from the article "‘High Incomes don’t Bring You Happiness" is one sentence long. The paragraph in its entirety is "According to the most recent census  data, the median US household income was $52,000 in 2008, with about a third of households making above $75,000."

In the article, it states that at $75,000 people are fulfilled and have a good emotional well being. It also states that anything over $75,000 drops off and people lose their emotional well being. Since the average household is at $52,000, the average household needs to rise for the average household to be happier.
