Answer:
The participle phrase in the sentence is "having made his point."
Explanation:
Participle phrases always begin with a participle, either present or past. A present participle is formed by adding -ing to the base form of a verb. Besides the participle, the phrase will have modifiers and/or objects. Participle phrases function as adjectives, modifying a noun in the sentence in which they are included.
Int he sentence, "One man, having made his point, walked away happy," the participle phrase is "having made his point." It begins with the present participle "having", and it modifies the noun "man".
Answer:
B. mainly
Explanation:
The repeated word in the first paragraph that is an intensifier and actually emphasizing the fact that the story of Huck Finn is more fiction than fact is mainly.
Intensifier is known to be a word that actually strengthens or weakens another word close to it in a sentence.
From the passage, we discover that the author repeated the word "mainly" and not just that but also repeated the sentence bearing the word "mainly".
Here it is:
<em>"...he told the truth, mainly" </em>(Line 4) and
<em>"mainly he told the truth" </em>(Line 5).
We can then infer that actually not everything in the book is the fact. As the author repeats the word, "mainly", he tends to reiterate that not everything in the story is true; there is something fictitious.
So, the correct answer is mainly.
B. Nothing good lasts forever.
