Select the sentence from the excerpt that most effectively develops the idea that the narrator is a competent writer.

Maru [420]

Answer:

He was happy with the few writing samples I’d brought to the interview and offered me the job on the spot.

Explanation:

The sentence from the excerpt that most effectively develops the idea that the narrator is a competent writer is "He was happy with the few writing samples I’d brought to the interview and offered me the job on the spot" because this sentence expresses that the editor of the newspaper liked the samples the narrator showed him and that he offered the job means that he thought that the narrator is a good writer.

Fill in the blank with some/any/no/much/many/a lot of I didn't sleep ___ hours last night

Fantom [35]

Answer and Explanation:

If you are having a hard time figuring out which word goes into the black, try plugging all the words in to see if it makes sense.

I didn't sleep ___ hours last night

I didn't sleep some hours last night.

- This doesn't sound right; Some can be used for plural nouns, but because of the way this sentence is structured, it can't be applied.

I didn't sleep any hours last night.

- Another way of saying any (in this case) is at all, which would mean the sentence needs to be restructured, which we can't do.

I didn't sleep no hours last night .

- This isn't correct, because it contains a double negative, which is when two negative words are used in the same clause (group of words containing a verb) to explain a single negative idea.

I didn't sleep much hours last night.

- Due to hours being a countable plural noun, we can't use much, therefore this is incorrect.

I didn't sleep many hours last night.

- This is correct! If you wanted to replace an amount of hours slept (or not slept), you can use many to show you slept for x amount of time without being specific.
