Answer:
None of these.
Explanation:
A complete predicate is the part of a sentence that contains the verb and everything that is not the subject. This means that the phrase that starts from the verb to the very end, including the modifying phrases that complete the sentence, is the complete predicate.
A complete predicate is different from a predicate in that a predicate just includes the verb and the statement about the subject while a complete predicate will include everything from the verb to the modifying clause or phrase that follows it.
In the given sentence, the subject is "Lindsay" while the verb is "enjoys". So, the complete predicate will be "enjoys surfing but isn't very good", which is not given in the options.
So, the correct answer is "none of these".

Answer:
b) Unacceptable
Explanation:
The given excerpt shows the text from the original source, enabling us to identify whether the student properly followed the formatting rules of Modern Language Association (MLA) style. The <u>in-text citation format</u> of the MLA style is enclosing the author's last name and the page number in open- and closed-parenthesis at the end of the text.
In the given prompt, the name of the author and the page number were provided. Also, the student copied from the text verbatim. Thus, he or she should have written the direct quotation as:
"There is no such thing as a literary work or tradition which is valuable in itself" (Eagleton 11).
Alternatively, the student could have introduced the name of the author before the direct quote:
Terry Eagleton presents an interesting view on the significance of value in literature, as he states, "There is no such thing as a literary work or tradition which is valuable in itself" (11).
Therefore, the student <u>unacceptably</u> cites the passage in MLA style.
Franklin describes how he looked when he arrived in Philadelphia in order<span> to present a contrast with how </span>he<span> later appeared to people</span><span> there</span>
