To get to the store, Moria had to cross the street, walk to the corner, and to take the shortcut across the park.

Answer: The error is in "to take the shortcut".

Explanation:

In the sentence "To get to the store, Moria had to cross the street, walk to the corner, and to take the shortcut across the park" we have the preposition "to" after the verb "had". The preposition already refers to each and every element that is mentioned after it, so there is no need to repeat it. It refers to "cross the street", "walk to the corner", and "take the shortcut across the park" as well.

In order to make the sentence grammatically correct, all we have to do is eliminate the preposition "to" that was repeated right before "take the shortcut across the park."

Thus, the correct form is:

To get to the store, Moria had to cross the street, walk to the corner, and take the shortcut across the park.

Which prediction about that he plot does this passage most support? Cassius will die Rome will be destroyed Brutus will die Brut
patriot [66]

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>Rome will be destroyed. </em>

<em></em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

This is one of the predictions which this passage supports. This is because the plot construction shows that Brutus is trying to take certain actions which would lead to the destruction of Rome. It is further hinted that Brutus is not support of Caesar for he knows that Rome will be destroyed in such case. The readers predict that the actions which are taken are not in favour of the country.
