Answer:

C. A pipe

Explanation:

Based on the context clues, that is to say, by only looking at the surrounding information of the word "brier", we can infer that this word refers to "pipe", because before Rainsford announced that he was going to smoke a pipe. The next thing that happens is that he is reclining in a steamer chair and "puffed on his favorite brier." Furthermore, from all the choices there is only one thing that can be puffed on or be blown: a pipe.

Exercise 1 Edit the sentence for clarity and correct grammar.
natulia [17]

Answer: "Two friends of mine are Kenji and Jose" is the grammatically correct sentence.

Explanation: In this sentence, "are" acts as the linking verb. It is a form of the linking verb "to be". However, "to be" has another form, "is". The type of verb to be used can usually be determined by how the sentence sounds.

The main way of deciding the verb to use is to relate it to the noun which is performing the action. If the noun itself is singular, "is" must be used whereas for plural nouns "are" is to be used.

When the form of verb is in accordance to the subject, it is called subject-verb agreement.

In the given sentence, the subjects are the two friends Kenji and Jose. Thus, the subject is plural. As a result, "are" is used and the correct sentence is "Two friends of mine are Kenji and Jose".
