Which best describes why the moon appears to shine its own light?

English
1 answer:
Nikitich [7]3 years ago
8 0

The answer is D: The moon’s surface reflects sunlight.

The moon is Earth´s natural satellite. It is an astronomical body that orbits the Earth in a synchronous rotation with it (that is why we can only see, from Earth, one of its sides, the other being the dark side of the moon). Since the moon, unlike the sun which is a star that produces energy and is, therefore, a light source, it does not shine through its own light, rather it can only reflect upon its surface the sun´s light allowing us to see it with our bare eyes from the Earth.

As you may know, adjectives are words that modify nouns, and adverbs are words that modify verbs.  When we look at the sentence, “The baby is very sleepy,” there is only one noun—“baby.”  And, there is only one verb—“is.”  When looking at the sentence closer, there are three adjectives—“The,” “very,” and “sleepy.”  “Very” can serve as either an adverb or adjective depending on what it is modifying.  In this particular case, however, because it is modifying “sleepy,” and “sleepy” is an adjective, “very,” too, is an adjective.  As such, the following in bold are correct:


Adjectives Choices-

A) the

B) baby

C) very

D) sleepy

E) none in this sentence  

Adverbs Choices-

A) baby

B) is

C) very

D) sleepy

E) none in this sentence  

Prepositional Phrases Choices-

A) baby  

B) is

C) very

D) sleepy

E) none in this sentence

adell [148]

Answer:

In paragraph 3 of Roosevelts speech which he gave during the Fiftieth Anniversary of the Statue of Liberty, he makes the following statement

They came to us—most of them—in steerage. But they, in their humble quarters, saw things in these strange horizons which were denied to the eyes of those few who travelled in greater luxury.

They came to us speaking many tongues—but a single language, <em><u>the universal language of human aspiration.</u></em>

By the underscored sentence, Roosevelt speaks of the feeling which binds all of humanity - a will and or a desire to succede.

Cheers
