Answer:

D• path, paving

Explanation:

To find the unacceptable alternative, let’s first figure out the meaning of the original sentence. Two things happened: first the county cleared the path, and then the county paved it. So any answer choices that express this sequence of events would fit the sentence, and thus not be the "wrong" answer that we are looking for here. Answers A, B, and C all express the same idea in slightly different ways, creating perfectly grammatical phrases.

Now let’s see what happens when we plug in answer J. We get this weird sentence:

“The county cleared this path paved it with packed gravel…”

This is clearly a run-on sentence, so answer J is our odd man out.

Hope this helps!

A student is writing a paper about Native Americans and wants to add a paragraph about the Hopi.
MrMuchimi

Answer:

Hopi means, ‘peaceful person,’” explains historian Janet Chaca. “And our tribe is known for being experts in agriculture as well as the oldest of the native people.”

The Hopi tribe is a sovereign nation consisting of 12 villages built on three mountain plateaus located in northeastern Arizona.

Hopi artisans create Kachina dolls that represent the spirits of animals, gods, and natural elements that use their powers for the good and well-being of the Hopi people.

What is good side and bad side Mobilphone
SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

One good side of having a mobilephone (or giving one to a kid) is that you will have much more contact. If the person with the phone is in danger, they can call their family and/or the police. Without a phone, this may be much harder to do. A downside of a kid having a mobile phone is that they may be exposed to many things on the internet, especially with social media. They could see thing they do not wish to see, they may be bullied, or they may experience jelousy when seeing other people on social media. In my opinion, phones are a very good resource for schoolwork, watching occasional videos, seeing the news, and staying in contact with family and friends, but this is only up to a certain point.
