Select the correct answer. Which phrase is a noun phrase in the given paragraph? Since childhood Jess has been interested in the

deff fn [24]

Answer: The correct answer is: [B]: " the art of story telling. "

_____________________________

Explanation:

_____________________________

The given excerpt is as follows:

Since childhood, Jess has been interested in the art of storytelling. She would entertain her little brother and sister with tales of magic and adventure. She started writing stories almost as soon as she learned the alphabet. To write her stories, Jess relies on her colorful imagination.

___________________________

Let us consider the other answer choices:

Choice [A]: "has been interested" ;

Choice [C]: "would entertain" ;

Choice [D]: "started writing" ;

are all "verb phrases" ; that do not contain any "noun"— or subject or object—nor do they function as a "noun" or "subject" in any way.

Choice [E]: "as soon as" ; is an "adverb phrase" that describes "when" something is about to happen —(albeit not very specific about "when"—in this particular explanation.

____________________________

Choice: [B]: " the art of storytelling" ; is the correct answer.

____________________________

This is clearly a "noun phrase" ; since it begins with a noun [athough this is not required to be a "noun phrase"]—and is modified by a "gerund" [i.e. modified by further explanation—by using the words "of storytelling"] ; in which the "gerund" is "storytelling". Gerunds are nouns formed from "verb forms ending in -ing" —which function as a noun.

Answer:

C. New environments can change one's sense of self-worth.

Explanation:

Charles Dickens' Great Expectations tells the story of a young orphan named Pip and his rise to being a gentleman. But more importantly, his childhood days, the education and knowledge that he learned along the way during his various encounters with different sorts of people and the theme of belonging, loss of innocence, and society are all dealt with in the story.

In the given excerpt from Chapter VIII of the text, the scene shows Pip's first encounter with Miss Havisham and also Estella. Pip admits he had never questioned his childhood until that day when after meeting with Miss Havisham, was led to the courtyard under the bright sunlight. As though everything hidden in the dark is illuminated by the sun, Pip also feels ashamed of his appearance and even regrets not being taught properly by Joe. He admits his shame in realizing his "coarse hands and my common boots" were seen by Miss Havisham, admits that "they had never troubled me before, but they troubled me now as vulgar appendages". He even expressed his "wish [that] Joe had been rather more genteely brought up, and then I should have been so too", which shows his feeling of inferiority in the face of Miss Havisham, or in general, in front of someone richer or 'classier' than them.
