Explanation:
Answer:
The answer is letter C, Finding the lost bracelet proved to be a difficult task.
Explanation:
A gerund is a part of speech which looks like a verb, but is actually a noun. It can be the subject of a sentence, an object of the verb, an object of a preposition or a subject complement. This is formed by adding "ing" to a verb.
- dance + ing = dancing
- swim + ing = swimming
- cook + ing = cooking
In the sentence above, "<u>Finding</u> the lost bracelet proved to be a difficult task." The gerund is "Finding" and it is acting as a subject of the sentence.
Remember that <em>gerunds act singular</em>, thus the verb that is being used to accompany them is also singular.
- <u>Swimming</u> is my favorite sport. (the gerund is acting as a subject)
- I like<u> singing</u> in Japanese. (the gerund is acting as an object of a sentence)
- My boyfriend's favorite hobby is<u> jogging.</u> (the gerund is acting as a subject complement)
The answer is:
The Grimms embellished stories with more details in their final editions.
According to the excerpt from "How the Grimm Brothers Saved the Fairy Tale," the author directs attention to the fact that the Grimm brothers enhanced, developed and expanded their stories in later later editions rather than the first. For example, he mentions how "Rapunzel" improved and became more refined from the first to the seventh edition.
Yes. It's a metaphor because the writer is not implying that the boy is actually a pig; his actions represent a pig. And thus, it is a metaphorical phrase, nonetheless an actual description!
