Identify the adjectives in the following sentence.  

English
1 answer:
wolverine [178]3 years ago
8 0

The correct option is B: new, overwhelming.

Adjectives are usually used to modify nouns. In this case, in the sentence "[although] the new students worked​ hard, they could barely keep up with the overwhelming amount of homework", "new" modifies "students" and "overwhelming" modifies "amount of homework".  

The other options contain "barely" which is an adverb, not an adjective. Moreover, "hard" is also used as an adverb in the sentence. Adverbs such as "barely" modify a verb. That is to say, they add information about HOW an action is.

Before 8 a.m., traffic is light, however , at 5 p.m., Fred always wishes that he drove a bulldozer to push other cars out of his
Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

The correct sentence is:

Before 8 a.m., traffic is light; however, at 5 p.m., Fred always wishes that he drove a bulldozer to push other cars out of his way.

1. light;

2. No change is necessary

Explanation:

In the sentence above, a semicolon is used after the word light, to denote that two contrasting clauses are to be beside each other in the same sentence.

The use of however which is a conjunctive adverb and a comma after it is fine and should not be changed because it is used to link together two independent clauses.

Answer the following questions as you analyze the structure of Mandela’s speech. What is the purpose of Mandela’s speech? How do
kirza4 [7]

The purpose of Mandela's speech was not simply to address the nation as their new president and give gratitude to those who put him there but instead to make a statement that South Africa was going to make immense changes and unify to show the world what the nation could truly do in order to become a land of hope. There are a few purposes to this speech, one being to unify the nation of south Africa by bringing the blacks and the whites together. The speech was also used to motivate and inspire the people of South Africa. I know this because I've studied Mandela's life in one of my subjects at school.

The audience for this speech was the people of South Africa. He addresses every one he possibly can to broaden his audience so that every South African hears his message.

Nelson Mandela

"I stand here before you not as a prophet but as a humble servant of you, the people."

Mandela repeats the word negotiations as he wants to encourage and push for more negotiations - a thing that will bring them closer to freedom.
