Which of these sentences contains an error in verb usage?

English
1 answer:
777dan777 [17]3 years ago
8 0

The sentence “I bursted my little sisters balloon” has a misusage of the verb because of the off tempo of the sentence.

The right word that should’ve been used is “popped” for it is an appropriate way of describing the object that the noun had to do. And it also supports the subject’s action in it.

frozen [14]
I would say that the answer should be "Helen's challenges with the frustration of learning to communicate".as a blind-deaf person and the excellent analogy with being shrouded in fog and not having how to determine where she was headed but love giving her the light to find her way and eventually get a degree at university.

Which of the following correctly punctuates an essential expression? Architecture, so popular with Native Americans, is still a
valentinak56 [21]

The two examples which correctly punctuate an essential expression or element in the sentence are:

Architecture, so popular with Native Americans, is still a flourishing art.

Mexico, where sports are popular, has hosted the Olympic Games at the World Cup.

Some constituents that alter a sentence are indispensable and restrict the meaning of an altered word or prhase, whereas others aren't indispensable and don't affect its meaning. The first ones are separated from the main idea using commas.

Mexico City is home to several museums that display the country’s past. Here we don't have any non essential element.

The National Historical Museum, which is in Chapultepec Castle, is concerned with Mexico’s history since the Spanish conquest. Here, information can't be ommited and in fact, shouldn't be set off with comas, since such expression contains essential information (it is not any National Historic Museum but the National Historic Museum which is in Chapultepec Castle).
