Answer:

D. They gave me a bonus.

Explanation:

In the case of sentences which contain a transitive verb such as give, get, buy, etc. one or more objects will be necessary. Whenever there´s more than one object, you'll have to determine what the direct object and indirect objects are. A question such as the following ones may be helpful:

  • What did [subject] give? to whom?
  • What did [subject] ask? to whom?
  • What did [subject] promise? to whom?

<u>In every case the answer to "what" is the </u><u>direct object</u><u> and the answer "to whom" the </u><u>indirect object.</u>

So, in this sentence, the structure pattern is the following:

They [subject] gave [verb] me [indirect object] a bonus [direct object].

What did they give? a bonus.

To whom? me.

Answer:

D. They gave <u>me</u> a bonus.

Explanation:

An indirect object is a noun or a pronoun that receives the direct object or that is affected by it. We can identify an indirect object by first identifying the direct object, which is the one that receives the action of the sentence, and by answering the “for/to whom?” or “for/to what?” questions.

In the sentence "They gave me a bonus," the direct object is "a bonus" because it is the one that receives the action "gave" (<em>What did they give? Answer: a bonus</em>), and the indirect object is "me" because it is the pronoun that receives the indirect object and it answers the question: <em>To whom did they give a bonus? Answer: To me.</em>

Write an argumentative essay for or against using public money to maintain national landmarks, such as the gateway Arch in St. L
DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

A conclusion that is in favour:

"Using public money to maintain national landmarks is a good policy in the sense that a national landmark is a public good: no one can be excluded from enjoying the view of a national landmark like the Arch in St. Louis for example.

Because they are public goods, national landmarks are not likely to be profitable or provided by the private sector in a free market, and for this reason, government intervention in the form of public money becomes necessary".

My mother and father are both scientists it must have been my just need to become interested in biology. How do you explain what
noname [10]

Answer:

- Fused sentence.

Explanation:

'Fused sentence' is described as the type of run-on sentence in which two independent clauses run together(one after another) without any coordinating conjunction or marks of punctuation to keep the two ideas separate.

The given sentence exemplifies 'fused sentence' as it justifies the above definition where two independent clauses('My mother and father are both scientists' and ' it must have been my just need to become interested in biology') run together without employing any punctuation or conjunction to link them. The correct version could be:

'My mother and father are both scientists, so it must have been my destiny to become interested in biology.'

'My mother and father are both scientists; it must have been my destiny to become interested in biology.'
