A. The red sports car sped around the racetrack.

A prepositional phrase that modifies a verb is used as an adverb. An adverb tells how, when, where, how much, and why. In sentence A, the prepositional phrase "around the racetrack" tells us where the red sports car sped.

The prepositional phrase in option B tells us which cat: the one "in the last cage". In option C the prepositional phrase describes the noun, house, when it says "with the green door". In option D the prepositional phrase "without nuts" tells us the type of chocolate she prefers.

What is literacy?
inna [77]

Answer:Literacy is most commonly defined as the ability to read and write.

But it’s not as simple as it sounds. Reading and writing abilities vary across different cultures and contexts, and these too are constantly shifting.

Nowadays, ‘reading’ encompasses complex visual and digital media as well as printed material. An elderly person who can read the newspaper might struggle to get information from Google.

Similarly, different cultures will have different perceptions of literacy. The writing traditions of the English language make reading comprehension an essential part of literacy, but this might not be as important in cultures or groups that rarely read printed material.

Add to this the many people who move between cultures and languages and you have a world where ‘literacy’ is almost entirely relative.

These complex factors make it difficult to create a stable definition of literacy. But if asked ‘what is literacy’, one could use UNESCO’s more complete definition:

Literacy is the ability to identify, understand, interpret, create, communicate and compute, using printed and written materials associated with varying contexts.

Alecsey [184]

Dexter is one of the men who chase Judy Jones.

Dexter is a man of emotions and he is enticed by her beauty. But Judy had fancy for men and wealth and lived in her own way. She used her beauty to attract men and money.

It can be inferred that Judy Jones was the peak of Dexter's life. He even gave up his job for her.
