What is the degree of comparison of the underlined modifier? This is the best omelet I have ever had.

Superlative means exaggerated.
Comparative means it is being compared to something else.
Positive is self-explanatory.

Honestly this is a hard one because usually when someone says something is "the best" they are exaggerating. Also when you say something is the best, youare saying that the other things you have tasted aren't as good which compares the omelet. Since your not saying the omelet is bad it is a good (positive) comparison. I think the closest answer is comparative for the reasons above.

PART A: Which TWO statements best identify the central ideas of the text?
mamaluj [8]

The two statements that best identify the central ideas of the text "Reliving the Attack on Pearl Harbor" are the following:

B. J. C. Alton's participation in WWII cost him his hearing and his peace of mind.

E. It was impossible for soldiers stationed at Pearl Harbor to be truly prepared for what they would see on the day of the attack.

  • "Reliving the Attack on Pearl Harbor" is the transcript of an interview with WWII veteran J. C. Alton. The text focuses on what the attack was like and what effects Alton still suffers since then.
  • We can eliminate option A since the text does not focus on advances that have been made in artillery. Even if Alton does mention some, he does not say so to mean that the attack could have been prevented had they existed.
  • We can select option B as correct. Alton has suffered hearing loss and has had nightmares since his participation in the war.
  • Option C is incorrect. Alton says the number of victims varies depending on who is telling the story, but he does not say it is because the attack was unexpected.
  • Option D can also be eliminated. It is true that the team had received detailed training and went straight for their stations when the attack begin. But Alton says they were scared and that those who say they weren't would be lying.
  • Option E is true. It was impossible for the soldiers to be prepared for several reasons. The fact that the attack was unexpected is probably the most important of those reasons.
  • Finally, option F can be eliminated. Alton's conditions have not changed. He still has hearing problems and nightmares due to his experience.

Read the problem sentence and select the potential concern. Also provide an alternative phrasing for the sentence that would cor
iragen [17]
Based on the given sentence above, the error that I can find is the incorrect use of the pronoun "their". Looking at the sentence, the subject is "One of your students", this means only one, and not all the students. Therefore, this should take a singular pronoun. So the correct sentence would be "One of your students left his or her book on the table." So the answer for this would be option A. Hope this helps.
