Answer:

The answer is indeed letter D. <u>The sentence contains a typo.</u>

<u />

Explanation:

The sentence "Unfortunately, the poor eating habits of parents are often past down to their children" has a misspelled word. "Past" can be a noun, an adjective, a preposition, or even an adverb. In general, it refers to something that happened at a previous moment in history, or it indicates location or a lapse of time.

What happened in this sentence is a common mistake. "Past" has a homophone - another word that sounds just like it, but is spelled and used differently -, "passed", which would have been the correct choice. The sentence uses the passive voice to describe how eating habits are taught. Passive voice requires the past participle form of a verb. In the case of the verb "to pass", it would be "passed". Thus, "Unfortunately, the poor eating habits of parents are often passed down to their children" would have been right.

Your first draft is always bad. ALWAYS. What system below will help you in creating an excellent scholarship essay in under 750
alisha [4.7K]
B. Make every word count - use only important words.
This is true because when you have as few as 750 words to state your point, you need to pack as much detail and facts as you can into a tiny amount of space. Chances are, they've provided either a prompt or several questions for you to answer, and you need to answer all of them or the entire prompt will a lot of description and you need to support whatever you said with detail and/or facts.
