Harriet Beecher Stowe and Rachel Carson are remarkably similar in many different ways.

Harriet Beecher Stowe was an abolitionist and writer who is best known for her novel <em>Uncle Tom's Cabin</em> (1852). The book was extremely important for the abolitionist movement, and it contributed to bringing about the end of slavery. On the other hand, Rachel Carson was a marine biologist, author and conservationist who published a book called <em>Silent Spring</em> (1962). The book led to a ban on damaging pesticides, such as DDT, as well as to the rise of the environmental movement and the creation of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.

Both of these women were interested in changing the social reality of the United States. They were both committed to making a change in their society, and took interest in the political issues of their time. Moreover, both authors led this change by writing about the topics that they were passionate about.

1. Recall that a participle is a verb form that is used as an adjective. A participial phrase is a participle with its modifiers
Delicious77 [7]

1. flying

As the directions state, a participle is a verb. Both flying and headed are verbs. However, headed is used as an action verb in the sentence. It is what the geese are doing. Flying is an adjective describing the geese as "flying by". You should be able to cross out the participial phrase and the sentence will still make sense as in "The geese are headed south for the winter."

2. B. Clapping wildly.

Clapping wildly is the participial phrase. It describes the audience. Option C contains the main verb of the sentence "shouted" so this is not a participial phrase. Option D has an infinitive "to come".

3. cat

The participial phrase in the sentence is "hearing the footsteps of its owner". The cat is what hears the footsteps.

bagirrra123 [75]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

What is the reporter’s motive in article 1?  

✔ to report factual events with added commentary  

What is the reporter’s motive in article 2?  

✔ to report on the unfolding investigation  

Which term from Senator Nelson’s quote in article 2 is an example of bias?  

✔ “witch hunt”

(Photo for proof at the bottom.)

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Article 1 mostly consists of facts that can be verified, along with some commentary. The commentary includes saying what might happen to Raymond Valido.

The quote from article 2, "The Federal Election Commission reported Wednesday that its initial investigation..." indicates that it is reporting on the unfolding investigation. Witch hunt is usually used to describe an investigation of accused people, because of opinions. Witch hunt involves opinions in its meaning, so it is used in biased situations.
