Option 2: A Before passing out the test, the teacher asked students to close their books.

<u>Before passing out the test</u> is the prepositional phrase.

A prepositional phrase has the following basic characteristics: usually begins with a preposition and ends with a noun, pronoun or gerund, functions as a unified part of speech, doesn't have a verb nor a subject.

Before is a preposition

Passing out the test is a gerund, which means that it acts as a noun in the sentence, and at the same time is the "object" of the proposition.

The whole phrase is a unified part of speech and doesn't have any verb nor subject.

As romeo is preparing to leave juliet, what argument does she use to convince him to stay?
scoray [572]
At first, Juliet wants Romeo to stay and is trying to convince him it's still the middle of the night. She tells him it is a night bird that he is hearing, not one that makes noise near to sunrise. She tells him it's a meteor he is seeing that is making the light, not the sun.

But then Romeo says he doesn't want to go -- he says it's fine if they catch him and kill him, he doesn't care. So then Juliet decides he'd better go so that he can live to see another day.

She says he looks pale as if he's in a tomb -- it's foreshadowing how he'll look the next time she sees him.
