Answers:

1- d) present perfect progressive

Explanation: It is about an action which started in the past and continues up to the present. Plus, the structure "subject+ auxiliary verb (has)+ verb to be in past participle (been)+ verb in gerund shows the verb tense that is being used.

2- b) past perfect progressive

Explanation: It is about an action which was already going on when a certain thing happened, "interrupting" it. Plus, the structure "subject+ auxiliary verb (had)+ verb to be in past participle (been)+ verb in gerund shows the verb tense that is being used.

4- none of the alternatives; it is a sentence in future perfect tense.

Answer:

Infinitive-Adverb

Explanation:

As we know, an adverb is characterized as a word that functions to describe or modify an adjective, verb, or another adverb.

As per the question, the given sentence employs an 'infinitive adverb' i.e. 'to go' because this non-finite verb is functioning to modify the main verb 'allowed' by adding details about it. It answers the question 'allowed what?' by replying 'to go.' It cannot be participle as there is no use of participle in the sentence except for the main verb and hence, options A and B are incorrect. Option D is incorrect as infinitive is not employed as an adjective to modify a noun. Therefore, option C is the correct answer.

Which sentence is written using informal language?

r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

The sentence "C: Tony picked up the tab for our dinner last night. " is written using informal language.

Explanation:

Informal language means the one that is spoken casually and used amongst family and friends. It is not a formal language used in offices and businesses.

Option C has a word ‘tab’ which is a casual word for ‘tablet’. So, this is a sentence in informal language. Other options have all formal words used. For example, ‘detoured’ in option A. Option B refers to fire drill. Option D refers to the menu that was ‘impressive’.
