The correct answer is A. have been

This is a linking verb that provides the aspect of the main verb that is careful. Should is a modal verb.

The correct answer is: Option A. Have been.

A <em>linking verb </em>is a type of verb that describes the subject by connecting to the predicate in the sentence. Since it serves as a connector, this type of verb does not refer directly to an action as a regular verb would.

In this example, the word "have" serves as an auxiliary verb for the verb in present participle "been". The link of both these words make for the linking verb which conects the subject "Shelly" and the predicate "more careful on the path".

<em>Should </em>is not part of the linking verb; it is a modal verb.

Which of the following contains the best example of using transitions when writing?
natka813 [3]

Answer:

Option B

Explanation:

<em>"</em><em><u>While</u></em><em> lions live in Africa, they are not the only big cats that live on the continent."</em>

The sentence connects the two different ideas with the word "while".

The word 'while' is commonly used as a transition word linking two contrasting ideas.

The sentence is stating that lions live in Africa but they are not the only type of big cat that live there.

Option B should be the correct answer.

Hope this helps.
