It is B because new is an adjective and it compliments the park

Hello there!

A subject complement is the adjective, noun, or pronoun that follows a linking verb. (most know linking verbs: be, become, and seem)

In this case, we identy the linking verb of the sentence.

The new park in the neighborhood has been busy all week.

The linking verb is be, conjugated in the present perfect: has been, and what is next to it? the word busy. Taking into account that its function is to give an attribute to the suject, what kind of word is "busy"?

A. noun? It is not a noun because there is no a determinant before it.

C. pronoun? as it is not the suject of the sentence (because it is "the new park = it),  it is not a pronoun.

Therefore, correct answer: B. Adjective.  It is an adjective because you are complementing the pronoun with an information that qualifies it: an attribute.

Hope this helps

Read the excerpt from Rudolfo Anaya’s essay “Take the Tortillas Out of Your Poetry.”
DochEvi [55]

The phrase of the excerpt of Rudolfo Anaya's essay "Take the Tortillas Out of Your Poetry" which best help the reader identify the author's purpose is<em> "I know more of myself as I learn more about fellow human beings"</em>. In this essay, Anaya speaks about the inequity that Mexican-Americans face when they try to be published. They are compelled by publishers and editors to "take the tortillas out of their poetry" as a way of saying that to be published they have to take from their work the Mexican culture, which makes them special. "Tortillas", in this essay, mean both Mexican food and Mexican culture. Anaya says that he when he learns other ways and other cultures he knows more about himself and feels freer.

A short story about a surprise 200 please help
Leto [7]

Answer:

It was a dark quiet night, Halloween night when Celestia screamed. Celestia was a dragon human hybrid with dark blue hair and kind light blue eyes, dark blue wings, a dark blue tail, her hair was always in what looked like two buns on top of her head the little bit of hair that was too short-covering her ears with her bangs shadowing her face, she was in a witch costume that was black dark purple and dark pink with a black hat. Nikki came running her longish white and purple hair in a messy bun, she was wearing her mad scientist costume but the fake blo.od looked suspiciously realistic. Wannabe ran in looking like the human form of sans along with Angel a few feet behind him dressed as a fairy. Nikki stood staring trying not to cry. Nikki’s friend Emery came in wearing her police uniform on and blue blonde hair up in a ponytail along with Rihanna in her outfit that she wore at her concert the night before, the light baby blue costume made her light pink eyes stand out and her fox tail nearly invisible under a big black bow, her hair in ponytails right behind her fox ears. The two stared in horror at what seemed to have happened, one of their friends had been brut.ally mu.rdered but their face was unrecognizable from the damage. Nikki stood up and took a headcount matching names with faces until she realized who it was. “I’m going to find the person who did this and make them pay,” Nikki said in a dark evil angry voice, she was mad and near her breaking point. Nikki left the room unable to look at her friend lying there dead while everyone else looked at each other. “Kind convenient YOU found him like this Celie…” Rihanna said to Celestia glaring at her, the two never liked each other and were always fighting. “First of all, I couldn’t handle the blo.od. Second of all, that’s my friend! Why would I hurt him!?!?” Celestia snapped, angry she was accused of the crime. “You found him like this. That's a little suspicious don’t you think?” Rihanna said giving Celestia looks. “I hate to say this but Nikki could have been faking the blood on her costume looks a bit too realistic…” Angel said her voice trailing off, she hated to accuse Nikki but at this point, they were all suspects except for Angel. She had said before that she'd never been able to kill someone and get away with it she’d end up admitting she did it. Nikki came back in a completely different costume, her Sara Sanderson costume to be exact. “Why did you change costumes?” Angel questioned Nikki, changing costumes because there was what looked like blood on the other was suspicious. “You act like I can choose to wear only one costume, heck I’ll probably end up wearing a cosplay before we figure out who did this,” Nikki answered, it was true Nikki tended to wear up to ten outfits a day so why would today be any different? Emery glared at Nikki, she didn’t believe her story. “Seems pretty convenient she had to change costumes so soon...” She thought suspecting Nikki was hiding something. “Let’s do this Danganronpa style!” Angel shouted, she had always thought how they did the class trials on that anime and in the game was cool. Everyone got to a podium and glared at one another. “I was passing out candy to the trick-or-treaters,” Rihanna said then turning her head to Celestia who was on her left. “I was in the Bathroom,” Celestia said, nobody was going to question her now. “I was fixing my fursuit, one of the ears fell off,” Nikki said with the tail to her fursuit in hand. “I was outside sitting on the porch,” Emery said pointing at the door. “I’m too dum.b to pull something like this off you guys know this,” Angel stated honestly, she wasn’t the brightest bulb. “I was in the kitchen when I heard someone yell for help.” Wannabe said solemnly.

Who killed him?

Btw it was cosmic that was killed. For some reason, he was a pirate. He ran into many walls. Glasses and an eye patch, not gonna mix well… ALSO! His body was found in the hallway next to the stairs.
