The little girls were playing safely near the empty street.

The large gorilla ran swiftly through the thick forest.

The excited man drove fast to his new work.

The hopeful woman continuously prayed for her sick son.

The professional musicians practiced restlessly.

Explanation:

Adjectives are parts of speech used to modify (describe) other words, usually nouns or noun phrases. This can make our sentences more detailed and interesting. Examples of adjectives are <em>red, large, beautiful, funny, happy, </em>etc. They are usually placed before the words they modify, like in our examples (<em>little girls, large gorilla, excited man, hopeful woman, professional musicians</em>). Of course, more adjectives can modify a single word (e.g. <em>cheerful little girls</em>).

<em>Happy</em> in the sentence <em>The girls seem happy </em>is also an adjective, but it's called a predicate adjective. Predicate adjectives are connected to the subject (who or what the sentence is about) by linking verbs such as <em>to be </em>or<em> to seem</em> and rename or provide additional information about the subject.

Adverbs are parts of speech used to modify a verb <em>(to sing beautifully), </em>an adjective <em>(too small)</em>, another adverb <em>(ended too soon),</em> or even an entire sentence <em>(Fortunately, I got home before the storm started)</em>. Adverbs are often easily recognizable as the usually end in -ly (<em>were playing safely, ran swiftly, continuously prayed, practiced restlessly</em>), but some of them are the same as the adjectives they were formed from <em>(drove fast - fast car</em>).

Which statement best supports the idea that the Dust Bowl made it difficult for families to survive
Ede4ka [16]
Yes, the answer is A.
