English

Answer:

C

Explanation:

Answer:

C

Explanation:

In the sentence that reads "I had began to study for the test by five o'clock", the person used the wrong participle "began". Because this is the <em>perfect past</em> (indicated by the word "had"), we must use the past participle of the verb.

The verb here is "begin", and its past participle is "begun". So the sentence should say "I had begun to study for the test by five o'clock".

Hope this helps!

Read the following excerpt from Dr King’s “I have a dream” speech:
Vera_Pavlovna [14]
Dr. King refers to peaceful protest when referencing the "majestic heights".  He describes peaceful protest as meeting physical force with soul force, or the will to see that justice is enacted through nonviolent means. This is truly a difficult thing to accomplish in the face of brutal injustice, and is a majestic height to reach indeed. Dr. King proved that such heights could be reached, and that real progress toward equality could be made by nonviolent means.
