The answer to your question would be the following one: She had been participating in songwriting contests since she was ten: nothing fulfilled her more than music.

A colon means "that is to say". In this case, the colon has been used between independent clauses to indicate that the second sentence explains, illustrates, paraphrases or expands on the first sentence. "Nothing fulfilled her more than music" explains the reason why "she had been participating in songwriting contests since she was ten".

Refer to the Newsela article "Alas, Shakespeare Won't Be Taught in This Class."
Molodets [167]

Answer: Students should read works by authors that represent their ethnic and economic backgrounds.

Explanation:

This article is about Dana Dusbiber, a high school teacher in Sacramento who believes that teaching Shakespeare to students is no longer relevant in this day and age.

Her argument is based on the opinion that students would relate more to works by authors who come from or write based on similar ethnic and economic backgrounds to the students which is increasingly important as classrooms become more diverse.

Which form does a verb take to ask a question? <br> subjunctive indicative imperative passive
mr_godi [17]
<span>The form that a verb takes to ask a question is indicative. You use just the regular forms of a verb to ask the question, as in this example: What do you need? Subjunctive mood is used when talking about possibilities, or wishes, as in "I wish you would stop doing that," where "you would stop" is subjunctive. Imperative is the form you use to give orders, such as in" Close the door!" Passive form, as opposed to active, is found in this example: A book is being read by me - as opposed to - I am reading a book - which is active.</span>
