Food is valuable in Elizabethan England, far more so than in the modern world. A flock of 180 sheep is worth more than the avera

ge detached house. The difficulties of transportation mean that the food supply depends heavily on what grows locally and how much surplus is available. It also depends on the season. Harvest is obviously a time of much grain and fruit. Animals are traditionally slaughtered on Martinmas (November 11) if the owner cannot afford to feed them through the winter. Even the availability of fresh fish depends on the season. There is no use in trying to buy fresh turbot in December if you are more than twenty miles from the coast: only in summer is sea fish carried to markets that far inland. –The Time Traveler's Guide to Elizabethan England, Ian Mortimer What is the topic of the paragraph? housing in Elizabethan England transportation in Elizabethan England the food supply in Elizabethan England

the food supply in Elizabethan England

The entire paragraph is about the food supply in Elizabethan England. It describes how food was valuable because it was not always easy to acquire. Travel was more difficult in Elizabethan England than in present day so the food supply was limited to what was available close by. Food options also varied by season. Some due to when certain fruits and vegetables were ale to grow and others due to when the food could be carried to different markets.

Answer:

B. The walls or the ceiling are going to be painted beige.

Explanation:

Heart and Soul is the name of my brother’s band. because the sentence basically says Heart and Soul is the name of my brother is band.

hi.

your answer is c.

hope this helps!!!

The sentence that contains an error in subject-verb agreement is: The walls or the ceiling are going to be painted beige. This sentence contains an error since the compound subject "walls and ceiling" are connected by the word "or". It is a general rule that when a compound subject is connected by "or", the closer subject should agree to the verb. Therefore, since ceiling is a singular word, the verb that should be used should also be singular which is "is".

The walls or the ceiling are going to be painted beige.

Subject-verb agreement refers to the correspondence of a singular subject with a singular verb, or a plural subject with a plural verb. Thus, the correct version is the following:

The walls or the ceiling is going to be painted beige.

The verb must be singular (is) because its nearest subject is also singular (the ceiling). In fact, when in the subject two nouns are linked by or, neither or either, the verb must be singular if they are both singular, and plural if they are both plural. When one of the nouns is singular and the other is plural, the verb must agree in number with the closest one.

In The Autobiography by Benjamin Franklin, which virtue is most difficult for Benjamin Franklin to master? temperance frugality
Schach [20]

Answer: order

Benjamin Franklin was one of the Founding Fathers of the United States. He was an author, political theorist, printer, politician, scientist, inventor, statesman and diplomat.

In his autobiography, Franklin describes his attempt at self-betterment. He adopted thirteen virtues (temperance, silence, order, resolution, frugality, industry, sincerity, justice, moderation, cleanliness, tranquility, chastity, and humility), and attempted to improve one per week. He argued that the most difficult one for him was order, because his good memory made it unnecessary. However, this meant he worked harder at it, and he kept a daily planner to help him acquire it.

Which two lines in this excerpt from John Keats's "Ode to Autumn" reflect the theme of growth and maturation? Season of mists an
vladimir1956 [14]

The two lines that reflect the theme of growth and maturation in this excerpt are: "Season of mists and mellow fruitfulness, Close bosom-friend of the maturing sun" and "Or by a cider-press, with patient look, Thou watchest the last oozings, hours by hours". The first line expressed the theme by two key phrases "mellow fruitfulness" and "maturing sun", as fruitfulness is often use as a theme for spiritual maturity. The second line tell us about "with patient look" and watching the last oozings hours by hours, those are characteristics of elderly people that patiently look how the world around them moves, while they live they last days quietly.
