In the sentence "His hobby is writing poetry," the phrase "writing poetry" is a gerund phrase. A gerund phrase is verb+ ing which functions as a noun. In the sentence, the phrase "writing poetry" is a noun acting as a complement of the subject. 

His hobby = writing poetry. This means "writing poetry" complements the subject "His hobby".

WITCHER [35]

Answer:

\boxed{\sf It \ is \ not \ a \ good \ estimate}

Explanation:

700 is not a good estimate for the sum of 435 and 368.

Round the numbers to nearest hundreds.

435 \approx 400

368 \approx 400

Let’s add the estimated numbers.

400+400=800

800 is a good estimate for the sum of 435 and 368.

KATRIN_1 [288]

Gatsby enters the house with a more constricted and darker appearance but leaves the house radiant and happy after meeting Daisy.

<h3>How does the book show Gatsby's appearance?</h3>
  • The book shows him with someone with tanned skin.
  • The book shows him as someone with short hair.
  • The book shows Gatsy looking withdrawn and nervous before meeting Daisy.
  • The book shows Gatsby beaming after meeting Daisy.

"The Great Gatsby" is a book that describes its protagonist, Gatsby, in a very indirect way. The reader has no details on Gatsby's physical appearance, knowing only that he has tanned skin and short hair. Most of Gatsby's description is done indirectly, through dialogue and narration.

With this, the reader only knows that before the encounter with Daisy, Gatsby looked a little withdrawn and nervous. This was due to uncertainty about how Daisy would react to meeting him. However, the narration shows that after the meeting, when he left the mansion with Nick and Daisy, Gatsby was radiant, happy, and excited.
