<u>Please select the word from the list that best fits the definition</u> -<u>Reading the summary first</u>- Survey. SQRW (the S stands for Survey) is a four-step strategy for reading/taking notes from chapters in a textbook. It helps to understand what you read and to prepare a written record of what you learned. To survey means to assess the information available. To survey a chapter, read the title, introduction, headings, and the summary or conclusion. By surveying a chapter, you will quickly learn what the chapter is about. <u>SQRW</u>:

  • <em>Q - Question (you need to have questions in your mind as you read); </em>
  • <em>R - Read (read the information that follows each heading to find the answer to each question you formed);</em>
  • <em>W - Write (write each question and its answer in your notebook).</em>

How can you distinguish between a main verb and a verb phrase with a participle in a sentence?
professor190 [17]

The major way to distiguish a main verb and a verb phrase with a participle in a sentence is to pay close attention to how the verb functions or what element does it modify.

While main verbs express action, participles look like verbs but function as modifiers or adjectives, and they usually end in -ed or -ing.

For example, in "The smiling postman waved at the children", the participle "smiling" functions as a modifier, indicating what kind of postman was "waving" (the main verb expressing an action).

Another example would be "The meal cooked last night smelled good". Here, "cooked last night" explains which meal performed the action expressed by the main verb "smelled".

To conclude, while main verbs express or indicate action, verb phrases with a participle function as adjectives modifying nouns.
