The correct answer to the previous question is "C". According to English Grammar, whenever using the Past Continuous Tense, also known as Past Progressive, we must comply with the following grammatical structure: past tense of<em> to be</em> (<em>was </em>or<em> were</em>) followed by the gerund of the main verb (e.g. <em>to sleep</em>, <em>sleeping</em>).

The correct answer is <span>A. My cat's favorite pastime seems to be sleeping.

That is because in this case the gerund sleeping works as a noun, functioning as an object.</span>

What is the purpose of an antagoinist in a story. Please help if you can! <br> ~Real
zhenek [66]

The purpose of an antagonist in the story is to hinder the main character(s) from achieving their goal. The antagonist does not always have to be the main villain, but just has evil intentions to the main characters. A perfect example of this (in my opinion) would be Boba Fett from<em> The Empire Strikes Back</em>, he was not the main villain, but was hired by the main villain of the original trilogy to stop the main group from achieving their goals, and did have evil intentions towards them.
