The correct answer is B. Pahom is unhappy

Explanation:

A linking verb is a type of verb that connects the subject and the predicate, different to other verbs they do not describe a specific or explicit action carried out by the subject, but the meaning of the verb is provided by the relationship established between the subject and the predicate, linking verbs include verbs such as feel, seem, be, taste, resemble among others. In the case of "Pahom is unhappy" the verb is "is" which is a form of verb to be that is classified as a linking verb, this can be explained as there is not a direct action but a link (is) between the subject (Pahom) and the Predicate (unhappy), this linking verb is the one that determines the meaning and thus, if it is linking a different subject and predicate the meaning changes. In this way, the sentence "Pahom is unhappy" is the one containing a linking verb (verb to be) as the verb just links the different parts of a sentence, but does not express a direct action.

The answer is B. The linking verb is 'is'. Linking verbs do not show any action but they connect the subject of a sentence to a word that gives information about that subject.

Why does Poe use chronological events in "The Black Cat" to organize details of the crime the narrator committed?
anygoal [31]

Edgar Allan Poe uses chronological events in "The Black Cat" in order to show the curve of transformation the narrator suffers through the story. At the beginning he used to like the cat very much, but after certain events that happen to him and that lead him to commit certain actions, he starts hating the cat.

Without the chronological events, the story would be very difficult to understand and we wouldn't be able to understand his internal motives to do something like that to the animal he used to love.

Which sentence has a misplaced adjective clause?
tia_tia [17]
The correct answer is <span>a. Even the adults were jumping and splashing like children, who usually don't play much.

The clause "who usually don't play much" refers to adults and not children. Here however, due to misplacement, it makes it seem as if the children are the ones who don't play much.</span>
