The answer is option D (Weeping for hours in bed is how I spent my day, broken after a long, sad week).

In a gerund phrase, the head is a verb that ends in ING. This type of phrase can fulfill all the functions of a noun. For example, in this particular case, "weeping" is the head of the subject.

A participial phrase looks like a verb but it is an adjective since it modifies a noun. In this case, the participial phrase is "broken after..."

Read this excerpt from The Adventures of Robinson Crusoe: I was very loth to sell the poor boy's liberty, who had assisted me so
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

B. It suggests that Crusoe has to justify his reluctance to sell a boy into slavery.

Explanation:

Though a bit reluctant to sell a boy into slavery, Robinson Crusoe had no other option than to sell Xury to the Portuguese sailor as he needed money. Also that he himself is not capable of taking care of anyone as he is also just a young man. And it should also be noted that it was this same Portuguese sailor who later became an important part of his life. He helped Crusoe in getting into the plantation business.
