Answer: Dr. Naismith would have been surprised, if he had known how popular basketball would become.

Explanation:

The best way to combine these two sentences is to put a comma between them.

When joined together, these two sentences form a third conditional sentence.

In a third conditional sentence, one part of the sentence contains 'would have' + past participle <em>(would have been surprised)</em>, while the other part of the sentence contains 'if' and past perfect form of the verb (<em>if he had known</em>). Third conditional sentences are used to talk about impossible outcomes. Dr. Naismith was a physical educator who died in 1939. Therefore, the scenario of him witnessing the popularity of basketball is not possible.

Add the phrase that completes a thought in <br> the sentence.
JulijaS [17]

Answer: challenging problems

Explanation:

Whatever completes the text would have be something that relates to the problems that are to be solved as this is the subject of the sentence and it would have to be in the negatives due to the use of the word "unfortunately".

The best option is therefore the above because too many challenging problems relates to the subject of problems and is not a good thing.

Anettt [7]

Answer:

Noun clause: whoever answers the question.

Function of clause: objects of a preposition.

Explanation:

Noun clauses are those clauses that function as a noun and has a subject and a verb. They are dependent clauses and can be of different types, depending on their function in the sentence.

In the given sentence <em>"the teacher will call on whoever answers the question"</em>, the noun clause is "whoever answers the question". This is because noun clauses start with words such as "what, how, who, which, whoever, whenever" etc.

And the noun clause in this sentence functions as an object of a preposition. An object of preposition means that the noun clause comes after a preposition in a sentence and acts as an object in the sentence.
