1.-The prepositional Phrase is A). Prepositional Phrases can act as adjectives or adverbs.

2.-The correct answer is D) to curse or jinks. Because is like to use inadequete words.

3.- The right answer is C) The teacher "referenced" the book during today's lecture. It means the teacher gave references of the book. In the first example it should be: The heightened emotion "affected" me, not effected me. In letter B) it should be the lotion had an immediate "effect" on the sunburn, not affect. It didn't show affection for the sunburn. And in letter D) it should be the orange throw pillow "complemented" the other warm colors in the room, not complimented. It didn't give compliments.

<u>Answer:</u>

<u>1.</u>

In the sentence – “Because I was running late, I quickly ran to my car and didn’t have time to drink my coffee,” the prepositional phrase is option A.

<u>To drink my coffee</u>.

The unique way of identifying Prepositional Phrases is that they can act as adjectives or adverbs in a sentence.

<u>2. </u>

Keeping the words ‘mal’ (meaning bad, abnormal or inadequate) and ‘diction’ (meaning choice of words especially with regard to correctness, clearness or effectiveness) in mind, the final word “malediction” means option D.

<u>to curse or jinx. </u>

While cursing or jinxing bad choice of words are used.

<u>3. </u>

The sentence in which the word in quotation marks is correct is option C.

<u>The teacher "referenced" the book during today's lecture. </u>

The quotation marks in the sentence makes it specific that the teacher gave references of the book.

Ever have your phone taken away for looking up something that involves your class lesson? If so then you will be happy to find out that it is good to use your phones or other technological devices. 
One reason classrooms should allow technology in the classes is that it can help kids answer questions without having to raise a hand or speak. As it says in,¨ Washington.edu¨, Smartphones are a quick and easy way to survey the kids,which can be good for instant polling, which can quickly assess students’ understanding and keep pace with the kids.
A second reason classrooms should allow tech in the classes is it can help the teachers grade faster and keep track of everything at the same time. As it say in ,¨Washington.edu¨, Course management tools such as Canvas allow instructors to organize all the resources students need for a class and  provide valuable grading tools to create space for more discussion.
One last reason why classrooms should allow tech in the classes is that it can connect to your class or teacher wherever you go. As it says in ¨Washington.edu¨ Online collaboration tools, such as those in Google Apps, allows students and instructors to share documents online, edit them in real time and project them on a screen to show the whole class what you did.
In conclusion, classes should allow tech becasue it can help the students learn better than paper.

hope this helps :) im pretty bad at writing tho
