English

mamaluj [8]3 years ago

The preposition here is "down" - prepositions describe relations between things, and here down says that something was down the street.

The prepositional phrase is the phrase with down - down the street.

It modifies the verb in the first and third sentences.
1) I saw the cat driving down the street.
 3) I saw the cat driving down the street.

In both of the sentence the verb is in the form of present participle

I would choose sentence 1), as it's not ambiguous that the person is driving, not the cat

"You do not rise to the level of your goals. you fall to the level of your systems" is one famous quote by James Clear on goals and systems.

Explanation:

People mainly talk about setting goals to achieve an objective, but setting goals does not necessarily lead to a success in achieving the objective. One might succeed in few goals that are laid out , but be unsuccessful in others.

The results that one gets, have very little to do with the goals, and everything with the system that one follows.

For example: the goal of a businessman would be, to be very successful in his business and  earn billions of dollars. But, he has to use the right system to do so.

Hiring the right kind of employee, the right advertisement campaigns etc is the system by which he can reach his goals. Thus, only setting goals should not be given priority, but priority should be given to the systems that help in achieving the goal.
