The school buses lined up like tanks on the battlefield. Obviously the school buses are not tanks and the school is not a battlefield. But in this occasion, the metaphor is used to describe the school as a battlefield, in that there are police forces keeping the angry people from attacking the black students, who are entering the buses to be taken home. (Buses being armored like tanks)

Participles are words that are formed from verbs but act as adjectives. They are called <em>verbals</em>.  What is more, phrases are a group of words without a subject and a verb that function as as single part of speech.  Therefore, participles consist of the participle and its complements and modifiers.

Taking all this into account, it can be said that the participial phrase is "trimmed that morning" and that it modifies the noun "grass".  This is a past participle which is further specified by the NP "that morning" which gives information about the time in which the grass was trimmed.

3. Why do you think the biguns wait until the other boys are occupied to leave
REY [17]

Answer:

They don't want to assume that they support Jack in front of everyone, to avoid conflict.

Explanation:

Hello. You did not enter the text to which this question refers. However, I managed to find a question exactly like yours, where it showed that the question refers to "Lord of the Flies".

"Lord of the Flies" is a book that tells the story of a group of English boys who, after suffering an accident, are trapped on a desert island, without the supervision of any adult.

Among the boys, Ralph positions himself as a leader and tries to maintain the civilization and behavior of the boys while waiting to be rescued. However, the wild environment influences many of these boys to abandon civility and enter a complete state of savagery and violence. These boys are led by Jack, who stands as the antagonist, towards Ralf.

The biguns, who are the oldest boys, are divided between Ralkf's peaceful and civilized leadership and Jack's total savagery leadership, but are attracted by the way of life that Jack is offering, but trying not to create conflict and show infidelity to Ralf, they expect all the boys to be busy to support Jack, without anyone noticing.

The crowd, because it identifies a group of people and still sounds like a singular noun.
