The dance squad had eight members when it won the competition.
A relative clause can be used as an adjective or an adverb. Relative clauses must contain both a subject and a verb. They also begin with a relative pronoun (question words and that). The relative clause in the last option is "when it won the competition". It starts with "when" which is a relative pronoun. It describes when the action takes place which makes the entire clause an adverb. It has a subject "it" and a verb "won". Options B and C should be immediately thrown out because they do not have a relative pronoun. Option A does not work because there is no subject after "that".
Answer:
The answer is B
Explanation:
Johnny clearly states that he thinks fighting is no good so it can't be A. Answer C is irrelevant, and Johnny never said anything about violence so its not D.
TEXT: The following is a student draft. It may contain errors.
Two weeks before I started high school, my mother announced we would be moving . . . to an entirely different city, halfway across the country! Needless to say, I was horrified. I had already arranged for a way to avoid taking the bus carpooling with my friend Kwe and had signed up for all my classes and extracurricular activities. I was certain this new school wouldn't have nearly as many options, and I knew there was no way I was going to be able to set up a new carpool with only a few days to meet new people.
I would be moving away. I wondered, what would this new city be like; what would the people be like; what would people do with their time? I just couldn't fathom a life outside of the one I knew and so I began to worry about whether I would be able to fit in.
These were the thoughts that haunted me for the next fourteen days, as we packed all our possessions and loaded them into the moving truck; as we drove two thousand miles across the country; as we settled into our new apartment; and then, as I stood staring at the massive glass doors that led into the new school I would begin the next day. But as I stood there, hesitant to take another step into this unknown world, I realized something: things are never as bad as I think they will be.
Answer:
A.
And so, I decided to stop worrying and start looking forward to the adventure that awaited me.
Explanation:
According to the given narrative, the author talks about his horror at finding out from his mother that they would be moving to a new city. He was terrified about whether he would fit in and if he would be able to make new friends at his new school. He thought and pondered about this for the next fourteen days, but when they finally moved, he found out things were not as bad as he thought.
Therefore, the best resolution for the narrative is "And so, I decided to stop worrying and start looking forward to the adventure that awaited me."
Answer:
The central or main idea either refers to the point or purpose of a paragraph or it refers to the summary of a piece of writing. These two concepts are closely related in a piece of writing because the point of each paragraph should contribute to the point of the entire piece of writing. In order to discover the point or purpose of a paragraph, one must first identify the topic of the piece of writing. Then, one must identify the structure or medium used to discuss the topic. Finally, for a paragraph, one should identify the sentences that the other sentences seem to support, and for an entire text, one should identify the statement or idea that the paragraphs seem to discuss or support. When this process is applied to the excerpt from An Interview with Marielle Tsukamoto, I come up with the following answers:
Topic: Japanese internment
Structure: Interview
Central Idea: "I think the saddest memory is the day we had to leave our farm."
Why: The first sentence is the main idea because the sentences that follow it support it. The first few sentences explain why the memory is so devastating. The last few sentences explain that the most devastating aspect was that the family was forced to leave for no legal or just reason.
