A predicate noun doesn't rename a verb so the answer is b.) False
I had to look for the missing passage and the options and here is the answer:"Here is New York" is a book that was written by E. B. White and Roger Angell. And based on the passage taken from this book, the effect that the symbol has on the meaning on this passage is this: The commuter is the queerest bird of all. The suburb he inhabits has no essential vitality of its own and is a mere roost where he comes at day’s end to go to sleep. (This answer is based on the actual options attached to this question).
Answer: C. because
Explanation:
Repair: fix or mend
Invite: make a polite, formal, or friendly request to (someone) to go somewhere or to do something.
Because: for the reason that; since.
Cooking: prepare food, a dish, or a meal
From the given choice, "repair", "invite", and "cooking" are all verbs or in-person actions, while "<u>because</u>" is a conjunction.
Hope this helps!! :)
Please let me know if you have any questions
D is the correct answer. You can omit as many words as you want, as long as 'the meaning and spirit of the quote is retained', that is, the general sense you wanted to convey with that quote is still there, even after you deleted those several words.
