A gerund looks like a verb which ends in -ing, but it functions as a noun in a sentence. A predicate noun follows a linking verb, such as <em>to be, to seem, </em>etc. So, among all these examples, the only gerund phrase which is used as a predicate noun is found in the last sentence, and the gerund is leading, whereas the whole phrase is leading people to their seats.

In what way does the author convey the
saw5 [17]

Answer:

Unfortunately, you did not attach the whole text of reference. So we do not know the kind of text and who the author is. Without that information, we cannot include the supporting details of the text.

However, we can comment on the Battle of Athens, if this can be of any help.

Just by reading the paragraph in the screenshot you attached, we can say that the author is very descriptive in his narrative and uses mane figures of language such as metaphors.

The Battle of Athens was fought in August 1946, as part of a rebellion of the people from the towns Etowah and Athens in the state of Tennessee. The causes of this rebellion were police brutality, corruption in the police department, and interference with the local elections.

Explanation:

Hope this helps:)
