English

neonofarm [45]3 years ago

After " before" is the best place to put participle phrase " synchronizing their watches."

Explanation:

A participle is a form of verb that functions as an adjective to modify nouns and pronouns. A participle can be of two types present participle and past participle.

A participle phrase includes a participle along with a compliments as well as modifiers of that participle. A participle phrase is actually an adverb but it looks like a verb. For example Walking on the sea beach where added information has been provided along with the noun regarding its doing as well as its look.

Which sentence best corrects the clause fragment? I cut my finger with the stick. That I found in the pond. A pond that I found
Anettt [7]

The sentence that corrects the clause fragment is <em>I cut my finger with the stick that I found in the pond.</em>

<em />

Explanation:

A clause fragment is an incomplete sentence. What must be encountered in every sentence are the following three elements:

  • a subject - what the sentence is about;
  • a predicate - the action performed by the subject;
  • a complete thought.

When one of these three elements is missing, we get a clause fragment.

In the given example, we have:

  • one independent (main) clause -<em> I cut my finger with a stick.</em>
  • one dependent (subordinate) relative clause - <em>That I found in the pond.</em>

Dependent clauses contain a subject and a predicate, but don't have complete meaning. That is why, when they are separated from the main clause, they represent a fragment and not a complete sentence.

The sentence that corrects this fragment is <em>I cut my finger with the stick that I found in the pond. </em>We simply connected the independent and the dependent clause and formed a complex sentence. That is the only given option that doesn't contain another fragment or has a changed meaning.

What are the benefits of practicing sports activities and cultural events outside of class? Needs to be 8-10 sentences long.
Svetlanka [38]
Kids’ character and moral principles are formed through fair play. Moreover, children who are actively engaged in sports can be good role models for their peers from school, neighborhood, or even school choir, and inspire them to start playing some sports as well.Playing sports enables them to create friendships they otherwise might not have formed. For example, the bonds professional athletes build on the field remain intact even when they are not playing sports, and often last a lifetime.Sports bring people together from all over the world, regardless of their nationality, religion, culture, or skin color.<span>Teamwork and benefits of social interaction among children are best seen in sports. Kids learn they are part of a team that requires the same effort from all members to succeed, as well as how to win with class, and lose with dignity.They view competitions on and off the field as opportunities to learn from their success and failure. Also, losing often motivates kids to work even harder for next time.They learn to respect authority, rules, team colleagues, and opponents.<span>Sport is a valuable learning environment for children. Numerous studies have shown that children who play sports perform better at school. It is also within the sport that peer status and peer acceptance is established and developed.</span>Sports experiences help to build positive self- esteem in children.<span>Also, participating in sports can be a helpful way of reducing stress and increasing feelings of physical and mental well-being, as well as fighting against juvenile delinquency, conflict, and aggressive outbursts. The point is to keep the body in good health to be able to keep our mind sharp and clear.</span></span><span>When children learn positive life lessons through sports, there is no doubt they will become honest, reliable adults who will try to help others in need at any moment.

You can pick the examples. I hope this helps</span>

Murrr4er [49]
That it wasn't important (and he went back to bed!)

"...In the early hours of 2 September 1666, Pepys was woken by his servant who had spotted a fire in the Billingsgate area. He decided the fire was not particularly serious, and returned to bed. Shortly after waking, his servant returned, and reported that 300 houses had been destroyed and that London Bridge was threatened. Pepys went to the Tower to get a better view. Without returning home, he took a boat and observed the fire for over an hour. In his diary, Pepys recorded his observations as follows:

To achieve the best results a researcher should
omeli [17]

An investigator is someone who loves knowledge. someone who looks for small evidences that give a little light to an elusive, complex and changing and often chaotic reality. Saying it in a less poetic but more universal way, a researcher is a person who creates original knowledge. In order to create this knowledge that does not exist before its intervention, the researcher must have competences and skills that can be developed.

There are many steps to follow that a researcher must take into account to obtain the best results. Here I mention the most important

  • The Formulation of a Research Problem : The researchers organize their research by formulating and defining a research problem. This helps them focus on a specific environment with specific conditions. Research problems generally seek answers to questions that no one has raised before, however there are also investigations that are derived from other research and its main purpose is to extend knowledge, raise a new theory, among others.
  • Hypothesis : In research, a hypothesis is a suggested explanation of a phenomenon.  A null hypothesis is a hypothesis that the researcher tries to refute. Normally, the null hypothesis represents the current view or explanation of an aspect of the world that the researcher wishes to challenge. The methodology of the research consists of the researcher providing an alternative hypothesis, a research hypothesis, as an alternative way of explaining the phenomenon.
  • Read, read and continue reading : Before starting research in the field, it is necessary for the researcher to read as much as possible about the work to be done, this will allow him to discard ideas and create action plans.  

<u>Theoretical framework :</u> The functions of the theoretical framework can be summarized as: helps to prevent errors that have been made in other investigations, guides how the study will be carried out, broadens the horizon of the study, guides the researcher to focus on the problem, leads to the statement of hypotheses that will later be tested in reality, inspires new areas of research and provides a framework for interpreting the results of the study.

<u>Literature review :</u> It consists of detecting, obtaining and consulting the bibliography and other materials extracting and compiling the relevant and necessary information. It must be selective in relation to the most recent.

  • Define the type of research: There are several types of research, and depending on the purposes pursued, the researchers settle for a type of method or the combination of more than one. There are several types of research but the ones that stand out are t<em>he descriptive, the exploratory and the explanatory.</em>
  • Methodological design: the methodological design can be defined as the action plan that the researcher will carry out. This action plan must take into account different aspects such as the subjects of study, the place where the study will be carried out, the type of tools that will be used and the time designated. During the methodological design, the reliability that the results will produce and the possibility of validating the information must be taken into account.

<h3>There are many other steps to follow in order for a researcher to obtain the best results but those mentioned above are the initial steps for an investigation. In addition to the steps to follow, a researcher must have certain qualities such as: curiosity, desire to learn, dedication, thoroughness, be good working in a team, be patient, among others.</h3>
