Answer:

Driving.

Explanation:

A gerund is the derivative of the present participle form of the verb that functions as a noun. These may be subjects, subject complements, direct objects, indirect objects or the objects of the preposition. <em>Thus, the word that justifies the above claim and functioning as a gerund is 'driving' as it is functioning as the subject of the verb "was". The other options exemplify the adjectives as they are modifying the noun rain, wind, and adventure while 'driving' is functioning as a noun.</em>

The author of Catch-22 was probably MOST influenced by
statuscvo [17]

Answer:

his disdain for bureaucracies

Explanation:

"Catch-22" is a novel written by Joseph Heller, an American novelist and playwright. This novel was meant to portray a disdain for bureaucracies, which was very popular in the 1960s. It shows a self-refuting idea about what is considered a common sense or valid in bureaucracy.

As stated in "A Catchy Phrase," "Yossarian" was a bombardier who was afraid to die, however, he has to follow the military regulation that they should not avoid combat missions. So, this highlights the standard operating procedures that bombardiers have to follow. It shows a <u>self-defeating idea</u>, since both ideas do not coincide with each other. He can just say "no" if he didn't want to and that would consider him as sane. Nevertheless, he needed to do his job because he was working as a bombardier, so this makes him crazy.
