in C. however to is not part of the verbal phrase:

Read the passage below and answer the question that follows: from Heidi By Johanna Spyri The early light of morning lay rosy red

zvonat [6]

The author's argument about life in the mountains would be that life was emotional and beautiful. According to the text, it states, "while the heights and the meadow lands were turning gold under the rising sun, which was just appearing above the topmost peaks." Another piece of evidence is: "The roaring in the trees always stirred a strong emotion within her and seemed to draw her irresistibly to them." This supports the author's argument that life in the mountains was actually very enchanting.

Which choice most effectively emphasize the complexity of the paper sculpture

coldgirl [10]

Answer:

The correct answer is: NO CHANGE.

Explanation:

Between March and November of 2011, an anonymous donor left intricately crafted paper sculptures at various cultural institutions in Edinburgh, Scotland.

In the first passage, the underlined word is intricately. Offered choices are 1. no change, 2. impressively, 3. terrifically, and 4. superbly. As none of these words can substitute the word intricately, the correct answer will be no change.

Impressively means in an impressive manner; imposingly.

Terrifically means great and intense; or which causes extreme terror.

Superbly means excellently, wonderfully, marvelously, splendidly.

Intricately means finely detailed, often in a careful but complicated way.

Therefore, the correct answer will be no change.
