Increasing would be the answer.
Answer:
There is good reason to be thankful.
E-V-S (Expletive-Verb-Subject)
Explanation:
Unlike most sentences, this sentence does not follow the usual pattern of Subject + Verb, instead, it begins with an Expletive, then a verb and lastly the subject.
<em>There</em> is the expletive because it is a word without meaning that does not add to the sense of the sentence, and that, instead, is inserted to give emphasis, it acts as an intensifier.
<em>Is</em> is a conjugation of the verb “be” in present and it indicates the existence of the subject.
Lastly, <em>good reason to be thankful</em> is the subject because it is the thing that is being discussed in the sentence.
Answer:
D. Jake tore up the main character's socks.
Explanation:
Well, all of the other answers do not make sense.
B does not make sense beacause Jake probably also eats other things and nothing in the passage says he only eats socks.
C does not make sense because nothing in the passage says Jake is the main chaecters brother.
A and D were probably the answers you were confused with.
A would kinda make sense but it is quite obvious that in the passage they do not focus on the fact that Jake brought the socks to the kitchen at all.
They focus on the fact Jake broke the sock.
So D would be a reasonable explanation and is basically the only one that makes sense.
That is my answer!
There are three syllables in the word notable.
Notable means "worthy of note or notice." That is the dictionary definition.
Have a nice day! :)
It is a literary list to see what is aright and wrong
