Here are my answers:
1. I think that this phrase <span>ON THE TABLE is an adjective phrase.
2. It is an adverb phrase for sure.
3. </span><span>MY ENGLISH TEACHER is most likely to be an appositive phrase.
Hope you'll find it helpful.

1. The book ON THE TABLE belongs to me - adjective phrase, since it is a group of words that describe the noun <em>book</em>.

2. Did you drive TO THE GROCERY STORE today? - adverb phrase, since it is functioning as an adverb, modifying the verb <em>drive</em>.

3. Ms. Reyes, MY ENGLISH TEACHER, is fluent in Spanish and French - appositive phrase, since it is a noun phrase that identifies the previous noun, <em>Ms. Reyes</em>, and describes it in another way.

Rings on the scales of some fish show the age of the fish. <br> transitive<br> intransitive
8090 [49]

Answer:

The verb in the sentence is:

a) transitive

Explanation:

A transitive verb exerts its action on an object, which means it can only express its meaning completely if that object is mentioned. In the sentence "Rings on the scales of some fish show the age of the fish," the verb is "show". To find the object, we have to ask the verb a question: the rings show what? They show the age of the fish. "the age of the fish" is the complete object of the verb "show". Therefore, the verb "show" is transitive.

Daisy is not actually the first member of the Miller Family that Winterbourne meets: he encounters Daisy’s younger brother, Rand
Natali [406]

Answer:

By having Winterbourne first meet Randolph instead of Daisy, Henry James is able to establish some indirect inferences about Daisy. She has a younger brother, who is a bit impetuous, as the reader will find Daisy to be. He is a bit manipulative in that he approaches someone he has never met to ask a favor, "Will you give me a lump of sugar?" and with this he pushes his advantage and takes three cubes. This is also very much like his sister as she uses her feminine wiles to get Winterbourne to promise to take her to see the castle. So, in these things, James is able to introduce, in Randolph, some of the traits that the reader will later find in Daisy.

Ramdolph sybolizes the the patriotic fervor seen in many Americans, which the Europeans cannot seem to understand. In Randolph's eyes everything is better in America, 'I can't get any candy here—any American candy. American candy's the best candy," ""American men are the best." He says that even the moon is better in America, "You can't see anything here at night, except when there's a moon. In America there's always a moon!" This unrealistic view of his home country shows his unreserved love for America, but also tends to point towards the shortcomings of teh European countries and his dislike for them, in that they have nothing to compare to America, in Randolph's mind. This is, often, the way in which people see Americans, both proud and boastful, without a desire to understand other cultures.

Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

1. Yesterday, the cobbler mended your shoes.

2. We raised the flag a short time ago.

3. He shot it down this month.

4. They left ten minutes ago.

5. Yesterday, the doctor gave him an injection.

Explanation:

I have been able to rewrite the sentences in the Simple Past Tense adding the expressions in the brackets.

The simple past tense is known to be a verb tense which talks about actions or activities that took place or existed before now.

Such tenses are used to describe and explain the events that took place in the past. In English, regular verbs actually form the simple past tense "-ed" while other irregular verbs can take different forms.

Despite adding the expressions in the brackets while rewriting the sentences, the simple past tense is still retained.
