Which sentence has an awkward shift in voice ?

English
1 answer:
Naddik [55]3 years ago
8 0

The correct answer is A. We practiced for the debate and many arguments were rehearsed.


As you can see in this sentence, in the first part the pronoun <em>we </em>is used, and in the latter part, that pronoun just disappears and the sentence suddenly becomes passive rather than active. The shift isn't done properly - it is rather awkward. The other options are consistent - they use only one voice rather than two (like in sentence A).

Dima020 [189]

Answer:

Quotation 1 contains a capitalization error.

Quotation 2 wrongly uses 'ellipses.'

Quotation 3 makes incorrect use of a comma.

Explanation:

The first quotation communicates a complete sentence and therefore, the first letter must be capitalized('The brave men') to make it grammatically correct.

In the second quotation, ellipses have been used incorrectly. It is a punctuation mark consisting of three periods('...') to indicate the omission of a word or phrase that can be inferred from the text. It communicates a complete idea but in this quotation, the idea is not completed after 'nation...' and therefore, the readers are not able to understand it.

The last quotation employs comma inappropriately succeeding the word 'finally' as the sentence is quite short and the use of comma unnecessarily breaks its meaning. There is no need for a comma here as the meaning is more clear and precise without using it.

Alex73 [517]

Answer:

playful and comical

Explanation:

From the excerpt, the mood is  playful and comical.

This is true because the author revealed that they "pattered pitty-pat, pitty-pat each with feet  and toenails, ears and hair, everything but tails,..." This shows that they were in a playful mood. Also, despite the way they pattered, when they got to the Philadelphia union depot, they had nothing to say. This also added a comical effect in the excerpt.
