The correct answer is B. adjective phrase.

While writing my report, I found the information on this website to be very helpful.

In order to find out what kind of phrase 'on this website' is, we have to ask what its function in the sentence is. In this case, it is describing something, saying that it is on this website. Now, we have to determine what it is describing, because adverbs and appositives also describe. In order to find out what it is describing, ask yourself 'What is ____?'.

What is on this website?
Information is on this website.

Therefore, 'on this website' is describing 'information'. Because 'information' is a noun, the phrase 'on this website' must be an adjective phrase, because adjective phrases describe nouns.

An example of an adverb phrase would be:

The dancers moved very gracefully.
The dancers did what very gracefully?
The dancers moved very gracefully.
Therefore, 'very gracefully' is an adverb phrase because 'moved' is a verb. This is also the case when the phrase is describing an adjective or another adverb.

Appositive phrases are difficult because they also describe nouns; however, appositives are separated from the rest of the sentence by a set of commas, and serve to rename the noun they are describing.

Here is an example:

The girl, my cousin, walked over to me.
Who is my cousin?
The girl is my cousin.
Therefore, 'my cousin' is describing 'girl'. Because girl is a noun, it is either an appositive phrase or an adjective phrase. Since 'my cousin' is separated from the rest of the sentence by commas and is renaming the noun, 'girl', it must be an appositive. Therefore, 'my cousin' is an appositive phrase.

Hope this helps!

sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

Oh gosh, I had to listen to an audio recording of me doing a speech for my English class to make sure I got it all so this is the perfect time for me to answer this!

What I liked about that way I presented myself is that I was actually able to get all my points across, and in the right order, without going away from the script to much.

What I didn't like for one was my voice (lol) so if I could rerecord that but have someone else speaking for me who sounds more confident and less like me that would be great. Another thing I didn't like was that I sounded nervous, so my points didn't come across as well as they did on paper.

Improvements I would make is actually practicing before diving headfirst into recording, so I can hopefully make they come across stronger. I would also ahead of time research a bit more than I did, and add more facts to the actual debate.

I hope this is a good answer to your questions><
