1. <em>(After several minutes,) </em><em>I finally located my car keys.  </em>The phrase in parenthesis is a <u>"prepositional phrase" (option A)</u>. This prepositional phrase is formed by the preposition "after" plus the adjective "several" and the noun "minutes".

2.<em> Mikayla's homeroom teacher, </em><em>(Mr. Jones.) </em><em>is proud of her</em>. The phrase in parenthesis is an <u>"appositive" (option C)</u>. The appositive "Mr. Jones" provides additional information about the noun "teacher".

3. <em>Henry's desire </em><em>(to win)</em><em> is obvious</em>. The phrase in parenthesis is an <u>"infinitive" (option B)</u>. The infinitive phrase in this case is used as an adjective which modifies the word "desire".

4. <em>(Talking)</em><em> is not allowed in class.</em> The phrase in parenthesis is a <u>"gerund" (option B)</u>. A gerund phrase includes a word ending in "ing" and functions as a noun.

5. <em>Josie's project was a failure,</em> <em>having not prepared properly.</em>  This sentence contains a <u>"dangling modifier" (option B)</u>. A dangling modifier is a a type of misplaced modifier, but it does not have anything to modify in the sentence; that's why the sentence should be restated so as to include the word/s that the modifier intends to describe.

What is George’s pint of view from mice and the men
wlad13 [49]

The point of view used by John Steinbeck in the novel Of Mice and Men is third person omniscient and objective. This means that the narrative is not given by a character within the story. It also means that the narrator knows everything about the characters, and the plot itself.

Drag each tile to the correct box.
Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

  1. Time the presentation
  2. Outline the presentation
  3. Create the slideshow
  4. Practice your speech
  5. Practice delivering the presentation
  6. Get feedback from peers

Explanation:

The first thing we need to know is: <em>How long is my presentation going to last?</em> Secondly we need to do a rough draft or outline of our presentation --perhaps in a white sheet of paper--; then, we should create the slideshow and include everything we did in our previous step; later, we should practice our speech: <em>What are we going to say? </em>next, when everything mentioned above has been succesfully accomplished, we can now practice delivering the presentation as if we were already in the real scene. Finally, you can obtain feedback from your peers and decide if you need to adjust or correct something in order to deliver a great presentation.
