Select the correct answer. Which phrase is a noun phrase in the given paragraph? Since childhood Jess has been interested in the

deff fn [24]

Answer: The correct answer is: [B]: " the art of story telling. "

_____________________________

Explanation:

_____________________________

The given excerpt is as follows:

Since childhood, Jess has been interested in the art of storytelling. She would entertain her little brother and sister with tales of magic and adventure. She started writing stories almost as soon as she learned the alphabet. To write her stories, Jess relies on her colorful imagination.

___________________________

Let us consider the other answer choices:

Choice [A]: "has been interested" ;

Choice [C]: "would entertain" ;

Choice [D]: "started writing" ;

are all "verb phrases" ; that do not contain any "noun"— or subject or object—nor do they function as a "noun" or "subject" in any way.

Choice [E]: "as soon as" ; is an "adverb phrase" that describes "when" something is about to happen —(albeit not very specific about "when"—in this particular explanation.

____________________________

Choice: [B]: " the art of storytelling" ; is the correct answer.

____________________________

This is clearly a "noun phrase" ; since it begins with a noun [athough this is not required to be a "noun phrase"]—and is modified by a "gerund" [i.e. modified by further explanation—by using the words "of storytelling"] ; in which the "gerund" is "storytelling". Gerunds are nouns formed from "verb forms ending in -ing" —which function as a noun.

In the final stanza, the poet uses words such as “spice” and “acrid” to appeal to the reader’s

hodyreva [135]

If this is about H.D.'s poem "Sea Rose", then the answer is the olfactory sense (sense of smell).

In the last stanza, we've got the second contrast in the poem (the first one was "a wet rose single on a stem"): a "spice rose", which is a particular kind of rose, very lavish and beautiful. "Acrid fragrance" is a unique feature of the sea rose that the speaker talks to, and she doubts that this spice rose can have it. In other words, even though the sea rose is "harsh" and "marred", atrophied, destroyed by the sand and the winds, it still has a more distinct and beautiful smell (even though it is acrid) than a regular, nurtured, home-grown rose.
