Answer:

c. to your sentence structure

Explanation:

A prepositional phrase starts with a preposition; it also includes the object of the preposition and any modifiers of the object.

C starts with the <em>preposition</em>  to and includes the <em>object </em>of the preposition structure and two <em>modifiers</em> of the object your, sentence.

A, B and D do not contain any prepositions.

The prepositional phrase in this sentence is c. "to your sentence structure", because it is postmodifying an infinitive phrase (to bring complexity), which has the same value, in this case, as a noun phrase. Besides it is composed by a preposition (to) and a noun phrase (your sentence structure).

Option a. is a verb phrase as well as option b. In the same way, letter d. is not a prepositional phrase as it is an adjective phrase used in the comparative form.

Which sentence best summarizes ""The Ransom of Red Chief""?
IgorC [24]

Answer:

D.Two kidnappers develop a scheme to take money from a small-town family but end up paying money to the father.

Explanation:

The "Ransom of Red Chief", tells the tale of two kidnappers named, Bill and Sam, who plot a scheme to kidnap a little boy named Johnny Dorset, from his home, in hopes that his father Ebenezer Dorset would pay the ransom of 2,500 dollars. Unbeknownst to them, the little boy was not loved by his father. To add to that, little Johnny was mischievous.

They waited to no avail, for Ebenezer Dorset to pay the ransom, while Johnny kept them busy with his mischief.  Eventually they sent a note to Ebenezer to pay the ransom, but he told them that it would be better for them to return the boy at night when the villagers would not see them. They did this hurriedly and also ended up paying the father money.

What is the error? Here's why you should skip the skimp milk and go for whole milk instead.
kipiarov [429]

The correct answer is the word Skimp instead "Skim"

Explanation:

In language, whether it is written or oral language error can emerge from the speaker or writer not following the grammar rules (grammar error), writing words incorrectly (spelling error), using punctuation marks incorrectly or avoiding using them when necessary (punctuation error), among others. In the case of "Here's why you should skip the skimp milk and go for whole milk instead" the type of error is a spelling one, which means words are not written correctly as the letters in words are not organized correctly or include letters that are supposed to be there. In this sentence the word Skimp refers to the word "Skim" that means to remove what is in the surface in the case of skim milk as fat is removed from it and not to the word Skimp that refers to avoid spending something, this means there is a spelling error as the writer added a "p" at the end of the word which is not correct and thus, the mistake is the word "Skimp" instead of skim.
