For singular words that end in s, ss, sh, ch, x, or z, what letters are added to make them plural

English

The correct answer is ES

Explanation:

In English, most plural words end in -s or -es, which varies with the word. According to grammatical rules, singular words that end in s, sh, ch, x, z or ss can be made plural only by adding "es".

For example, "buses" is the plural form of "bus" ending in "s"; "bushes" is the plural of "bush" that ends in "sh"; "matches" is the plural of "match" that ends in "ch"; "foxes" is the plural of "fox" that ends in "x"; "buzzes" is the plural of "buzz" that ends in "z"; and "glasses" is the plural of "glass" that ends in "ss". Besides this, other words such as "fish" do not have changes, some imply changing "y" by "i" as "fly" and "flies" and most words only need an "s" to become plural such as kids, dogs, tables, etc.

9. Which statement about paragraphs is accurate?
Novay_Z [31]
The answer is B) They are always focused on a main idea.

Paragraphs are not always indented; it depends on the writing format. They vary in length from short to long. They do not always have a topic sentence; some writers organize their thoughts and paragraphs well without topic sentences.

Hope this helps! :)

Read this excerpt from Frankenstein: It is impossible to communicate to you a conception of the trembling sensation, half fearfu
Katena32 [7]

Answer:

The full question is:

Read this excerpt from Frankenstein.

It is impossible to communicate to you a conception of the

trembling sensation, half fearful, with which I am preparing

to depart. I am going to unexplored regions. ... Shall I

meet you again, after having traversed immense seas, and

returned by the most southern cape of Africa or America? |

dare not expect such success, yet I cannot bear to look on

the reverse of the picture. ... Remember me with

affection, should you never hear from me again.

Which words best describe the overall tone of this passage?

A. Calm and contemplative

B. Excited and cautious

C. Tentative and curious

D. Resentful and angry

The answer is B. Excited and cautious.

Explanation:

Going through the text, the writer's excitement is communicated with words like "trembling sensation". He is excited about the journey he is about to take but he is also aware of the dangers, therefore cautious.

So as he writes, he takes care not to expect much success. He also anticipates that he may not return, hence the line "should you never hear from me again".

He is clearly excited about his journey but cautious about the dangers and cautious enough not to ignite hope about his return to whoever he is writing to.
