Choose the most effective revision about the underlined part of the sentence. If no revision is necessary, choose leave it as it
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

Mary Jean and Beth <u>volunteered</u> for the past five years at a local shelter for abused pets.

Explanation:

In the given sentence, the action/ verb is something that's done in the past. This is identified by the phrase "for the past five years", meaning it is an action that's been done in the past, that happened some years before the present.  Therefore, the verb "volunteer" will be used on the past form "volunteered".

So, the newly revised sentence will become-

Mary Jean and Beth <u>volunteered</u> for the past five years at a local shelter for abused pets.

What’s the most useless talent you have?
Sauron [17]

Hey there!

I know this question will get taken down sooner than later but it depends on what you call a "talent". Like, I can roll my tongue (which is pretty useless), can still scream higher-pitched than a opera singer (I'm 13 AND a male XD), I can whistle through my nose, and that's about it!

I'm always open to any questions or friend requests! :D
