English

Firdavs [7]3 years ago

This is the sentence which contains an inappropriate shift in tense:
The dog is playing in the yard as Mrs. Smith worked in the garden.
It is not correct to use present continuous in one part of the sentence, and past simple in the other, in this case.
The possible correct forms of this sentence are:
The dog was playing in the yard as Mrs. Smith was working in the garden.
The dog played in the yard as Mrs. Smith worked in the garden.

HELP ASAP! Select the linking verb and the predicate noun or predicate adjective.
Leviafan [203]
The linking verb is the word, "is" and "effective" is the predicate adjective.

I hope this helps.

Take care,
