Answer:
1: Anne kept scribbling notes in her WRITING journal.
2: Good WRITING takes a lot of practice, and a lot of editing
Explanation:
Participle is word formed from a verb and used as adjective or noun.
For example
A): In "<em>injured soldier"</em> we have an adjective <em>injured</em>, the word <em>injured</em> came from verb <em>injure</em>; hence it is a participle. However the phrase injured soldier as a whole is a noun.
B): in "<em>good cooking"</em>, <em>cooking</em> is a noun made from a verb <em>cook</em>; hence cooking is a participle.
1: In this sentence “Anne kept scribbling notes in her WRITING journal”, <em>writing</em> is a participle as it made from verb “write” and used as adjective.
2: In the sentence “Good WRITING takes a lot of practice, and a lot of editing” <em>writing</em> is participle as it is made from a verb “write” and used as a noun.
3: In “Tonight, I am going to WRITE a letter to my brother who is in the army” <em>write</em> is verb (not a noun or adjective) and hence it is not a participle.
4: In “Sadie WRITES letters to her brother every week” <em>write</em> is verb (not a noun or adjective) and hence it is not a participle.
Ibsen's Hedda Gabler can best be categorized as a problem play.

Answer:
It uses irony to show that despite her expectation of being missed by someone, no one seemed to have the same sentiment. rather, she found that her dog was the one digging, not because he missed her but to bury his bone. He also added that he had forgotten she was buried there.
Explanation:
The final stanza of the poem <em>"Oh, Are You Digging On My Grave?"</em> by Thomas Hardy shows a dead woman expecting someone would remember her. The lines goes like this-
<u><em>"Mistress, I dug upon your grave
</em></u>
<u><em>To bury a bone, in case
</em></u>
<u><em>I should be hungry near this spot
</em></u>
<u><em>When passing on my daily trot.
</em></u>
<u><em>I am sorry, but I quite forgot
</em></u>
<u><em>It was your resting-place."</em></u>
She heard someone digging her grave and then she began guessing who that would be, her husband 'who must have missed her' or her family or even her enemy. But it was none of them but rather her dog. Even then, she was happy to know that at least someone remembered her. Ironically, the dog wasn't there for her but rather to hide his bone in case he gets hungry on his walks. This irony in the scene's reality and the narrator's expectations shows how she must have been missed by someone. But it was nobody except her dog who wants to hide his bone not because he felt anything for her. Not only that, he also mentioned that he had quite forgotten that she was buried there.
