The correct answer is D. nonessential past participial phrase.
The phrase <em>broken in two places </em>is nonessential - it means that if it were deleted from the sentence, the meaning would stay the same and it wouldn't change. Nonessential elements are usually set off by commas. This is also a past participial phrase because <em>broken </em>is past participle - present participle would be <em>breaking. </em>

Read this excerpt from the Declaration of Independence. "We have warned them from time to time of attempts by their legislature
ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

The statement that best describes the colonists' view of their relationship with the British government is <em>A: The colonists have demanded fair treatment from the British government many times, and they believe separating from Britain is their last resort. </em>

Explanation:

What this excerpt from the Declaration of Independence exposses in these lines is that the colonists have tried many times to make the British government attend their needs as a society: "<em>We have warned them from time to time of attempts by their legislature to extend an unwarrantable jurisdiction over us. We have reminded them of the circumstances of our emigration and settlement here.</em>" It says that they feel they have been "<em>deaf</em>" to their needs, and, as a consequence, they have to separate from this government.

B seems to be the best option. Although D is also an interesting choice, I would go with B. "are a hazard for hatchlings" This does clarify the relationship between the claim that lights are hazardous for baby sea turtles and the reason that lights prevent them from coming ashore.

I hope this helps! :)

Choose the correct option to complete the mini conversation:
Ilya [14]

Answer:

The first option does not include all the information. It does not mention that Anna enjoys her life of the farm. We can eliminate it.

The third option uses "and" to connect all three clauses. However, "Anna enjoys living on a farm" is not an addition to the chores she has to do, which makes the sentence sound strange. We can also eliminate this option.

The last option uses "when", which makes it sound as if she only enjoys living on a farm during the time she has to milk the cows and feed the chickens. This option is incorrect.

The best option is the second one. It connects Anna's two chores with "and". The "although" used for the remaining clause indicates that, even though Anna has chores, living on a farm is still enjoyable. It is the best revision, varying the sentence pattern, but keeping the meaning.
