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..."

The paragraph below is an excerpt from an article written for a school newspaper.
andriy [413]

Answer: Critical

Explanation: The paragraph shows a critical tone due to the last two sentences. The beginning was purely informative of the rising popularity of cell phone usage. None of the particulate tones were being used. As the paragraph progresses, the author switches to the stating a negative side to cell phone usage. This being said, melancholy and humorous make no particular sense as an answer, which leaves us with respectful and critical. We can eliminate respectful because although the author was respectful, there was more to it then just that. Hope that helps!
