Answer:

A. Questions usually start with a helping verb or adverb.

Explanation:

Grammatically correct questions need to star with either a helping verb or an interrogative adverb and end with a question mark, while statements do not.

A helping verb refers to auxiliary Verbs (To be, to do and to have) and modal verbs (Can, could, may, might, will, would, shall, should), and the interrogative adverbs are why, where, how, when and which. Here are some examples so you can see how they are used:

  • <em>Are you OK? (Are = verb to be) - You are OK (statement).</em>
  • <em>Do you like animals? - You like animals.</em>
  • <em>Does she live with two cats? - She lives with two cats.</em>
  • <em>Could you shut the door? </em>
  • <em>Why is she here?</em>
  • <em>Where are your parents?</em>

Mariulka [41]

Answer: misused pronoun: me. Correct pronoun: I.

Explanation: Pronouns have three possible cases: subjective, possessive and objective. The subjective case is used when the pronoun is the subject of the sentence (they are: I, you, she/he/it, they, we). The objective case is used when the pronoun acts as an object in the sentence (they are: me, her, them, us, etc). The possessive case is used to indicate ownership (they are mine, yours, his, hers, its, ours, and theirs). In the given sentence, the pronoun is in the subject of the sentence, therefore it should be in the subjective case: After school, Bob and I cleaned up their yard.

A colon here is right to set up the quote from the introduction in the sentence. The lead in shows that the writer is about to provide a specific example, not a quote that continues the flow of the sentence. A colon allows the quote to stand alone from the rest of the sentence as an example.</span>

Is the group of words a simple sentence, a compound sentence, or a run-on sentence?
elixir [45]

I am going to go with C (simple sentence) on this one because after the and you do not have another complete sentence therefore it would not be considered a complex sentence. Hopefully this helps.
