Reading novels is one of the greatest pleasures in my life. Some call reading fantasy and science fiction a form of escapism. One of the best ways to learn about history is by reading historical novels.

A simple sentence contains only one clause with a subject and verb phrase. In the first sentence, "reading novels" is the subject and "is" is the verb. In the second sentence, the subject is "Some" and the verb is "call". In the third sentence the subject is "One" and the verb is "is".

The other sentences don't work because in "What a person reads can tell you a lot about him or her" there are two verb phrases "reads" and "can tell'.

In the sentence "Reading books can take you places that you have never been before" there are also two clauses: "Reading books can take you places" and "you have never been before."

Which best describes the tone used in the sentence? my car isn’t the greatest, but it’s not really that bad.
Alinara [238K]
If this were a question on my test, I'd probably go for tolerant or sentimental. I'd probably go for sentimental, because if the sentence had a more tolerant tone, it would say something like "My car isn't the greatest, but I can live with it".

Answer:

B

Explanation:

When giving support to someone or endorsing a cause, it is not at all productive to try and fix a problem having to do with the person or movement you are supporting.

In the case of helping a friend, listening to their needs is always a good idea. Gaining a deeper understanding of their feelings and attempting to comprehend what they have been through are all ways to show support and also be of emotional help.
