English
1 answer:
Firdavs [7]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

A. Walking along the shore, Rosie and her little sister began to notice many starfish on the rocks.

Explanation:

Participial phrase is a set of words whose main part is participle and as a whole functions as an adjective.

Infinitive phrase has an infinitive as main part and can have many functions in a sentence.

Sentences C. and D. don't have infinitive at all (to + verb).

Sentence B. has infinitive (to calm down) but it doesn't havs participle. "taking" although looks like participle, is actually gerund. The whole phrase (taking a long walk) doesn't modify any noun, it functions as a subject.

Finally, sentence A. has an infinitive (to notice) and infinitive phrase (to notice many starfish on the rocks). Since this modifies verb "began" this server as an adverb. Also, there iss a participle (walking) and participial phrase (walking along the shore). This functions as an adjective because it modifies Rosa and her sister.

Write a letter to your city mayor for poor sanitary condition in your area
ehidna [41]
(Leaving some blanks so you can make it apply to wherever you are!)

Hello Mr/Ms. ________,

I’m writing to you in hopes that you improve the unsafe & unsanitary conditions of our city. As you may see, there is plenty of litter in our city. You cannot go 30 feet without finding some sort of trash on the ground. With that, we have plenty of volunteer groups however this is not enough. There are animals that are eating the trash & dying. People are getting sick because of the buildup. It isn’t going to get better.

On top of this Mr./Ms. _______, I would like the point out the unsafe drinking water. As you may have seen on the news, our city has had many cases of unsafe drinking water. These include pollution, bacteria in the water & much more. I would hope as mayor you would have tried to fix this by now however that doesn’t seem to be the case.

Overall, I hope this letter reaches you & influences your ideas to better this city for the safety of both your family and thousands of others. Our city needs help Mr./Ms. _____. You can influence the state of change that this city needs.

Thank you,
- (name)
