I think the word creative is being underlined here and we are asked to determine which part of speech it is. The choices are as follows:
a. compound verb
<span>b. indirect object </span>
<span>c. predicate nominative </span>
<span>d. predicate adjective
</span>
I think option D is the answer. It is a predicate adjective.
<u>Which excerpt from a student essay maintains the most objective tone?</u>
<em>C. The careful way Elisa tends her garden reveals that she takes great pride in her abilities as a gardener.</em>
An <u>objective tone </u>means the author of the essay is not sharing her/his personal opinion, bias or judgment about a subject, but presenting the information impartially.
The remaining options have a <u>subjective tone</u>, through the use of the pronouns "me" or "I", which indicate the student is presenting a personal opinion about Eliza.
He repeated words in the same line to add emphasis and show that they are important!! Hope this helps!!
The answer is C. Tropical.
