AYUDAAAAA DIRECTIONS: Use parentheses to set off all prepositional phrases. Do not look for predicate adjectives within preposit

juin [17]

Answer:

Linking verbs are italicized, prepositional phrases are in bracket, while predicate adjectives are underlined.

1. Great men are not (always wise).

2. A good name is priceless.

3. The day is cold and dark.

4. We should be reasonable.

5. No one is good (at this).

6. The sword is quick and powerful.

7. The rich man is wealthy (beyond imagination).

8. The sky grew dark (as the storm approached).

9. The hamburger tasted greasy.

10. She remained haughty (throughout the entire discussion).

Explanation:

A prepositional phrase is used to modify a verb or a noun and usually begins with a preposition, an object and sometimes a word that modifies the object. A predicate adjective modifies the noun in a sentence and the adjective is usually connected to the subject through a linking verb.

In question 2, the subject, "Good men", is qualified with the adjective, priceless. The linking verb, "is", connects the subject to the adjective. The prepositional phrases usually begins with the preposition.

If the prefix contra- means “against,” what does it mean to do something controversial?

Vlad [161]

The word "controversy" comes from the Latin words "contra" meaning against and "vertere" meaning to turn. Then it becomes the Latin word "controversus" meaning turned against, disputed. Therefore, the meaning of the word controversial is option A. to turn against.

Hello! You've done well so far by adding a simile (stanza 3, line 1) and repetition (stanza 1, beginning of lines 1 and 2). But I'd like to help add some personification to the poem with the first 2 lines since A. it rarely shows up and B. it's one of the most important factors towards a poem when creating something with such detail.

"The future winking at us wishing us good luck
as we wash away worries with ideas of us being stuck"

These two lines offer personification because we give the "future" a human attribute of winking and wishing luck towards a person. Also, Alliteration is included in both these lines which can be seen by the repetition of "w"'s makes it's way in the second half of the first line and the first half of the second line.

I want to add some repetition for the end since you started with repetition at the beginning since it'll bring your ideas together in a much neater way.

"My family still keeps it's traditional pride
My family will push on making one last stride."

You have the repetition in "my family" as you used above, and it explains the ending of the book with the family still being who are they, only they accomplished there goal by making one final action, which is making the move.

I hope these lines help and if you need any more help, feel free to ask!

olga_2 [115]

The correct answer is He has been taking Japanese language classes in anticipation of the company’s expansion into Asia.

The above sentence uses the verb-tense correctly as has been taking.

In the second statement, it should be Linda is giving.

And, in the third statement, the correct usage would be She has chosen.

Verbs used to identify or denote the time at which an action or event occurred are known as tenses. Tenses are the numerous forms that verbs can take in order to convey the timing of an action, an event, or a situation.

Grammatical categories that are frequently utilised together are Tense and Aspect. While the Aspect describes how an action is seen in terms of time rather than its actual position in time, the Tense determines the location of an action or an event in time.
