The correct answer is B) She ruled the bright clouds that gleam in the summer sky and caused them to pour their showers on meadow, forest, and mountains.

Explanation:

In the original sentence, the section "on meadow, forest, and where the mountains were" is grammatically incorrect because the element "where the mountains were" does not follow the same pattern that "meadow, forest". This makes the sentence to be more difficult to read and it interrupts the natural flow the sentence should have. In this context, to make the sentence correct and preserve the parallelism (consistency in structure) the best is to include only the word "mountains". This occurs in option B "on meadow, forest, and mountains."

A shortened version of a novel or a dictionary is an unabridged version. <br> a. True<br> b. False
Tamiku [17]
This is false!

An "unabridged"  version means not shortened, complete, not missing any text. A shortened version of a novel or of a dictionany is the opposite of this: it is abridged. The verb "abridge" itself means to shorten without a loss of content.

Anyone here have read the 26 storey treehouse by Andy Griffiths, can you please write a reflection what is it about you’ve read.
stiv31 [10]

Answer :

Explanation :

The 26-Storey Treehouse is the second book in Andy Griffith's and Terry Denton's wacky treehouse adventures, where the laugh-out-loud story is told through a combination of text and fantastic cartoon-style illustrations.

Andy and Terry have expanded their treehouse! There are now thirteen brand-new storeys, including a dodgem-car rink, a skate ramp, a mud-fighting arena, an antigravity chamber, an ice-cream parlour with seventy-eight flavours run by an ice-cream-serving robot called Edward Scooperhands, and the Maze of Doom – a maze so complicated that nobody who has gone in has ever come out again . . . well, not yet anyway . . .

With its slapstick humour, brilliant absurdities and some bonus puzzles to solve at the back of the book, The 13-Storey Treehouse is the best 'tall story' you'll read this year!

How does homework help you learn?<br> (In high school format or in your own words please)
Lapatulllka [165]
Homework is a key factor in education because it can help us to better understand the work we are doing. Doing homework everyday, or even just a few days a week, is good practice on any information we are learning in school. The more we do it and practice it, the better we will be at it.


This is my own words btw
