*Next time try to word your question better*
This question is incomplete. Here's the complete question.
Every day after work Paul took his muddy boots off on the steps of the front porch. Alice would have a fit if the boots made it so far as the welcome mat. He then took off his dusty overalls and threw them into a plastic garbage bag; Alice left a new garbage bag tied to the porch railing for him every morning. On his way in the house, he dropped the garbage bag off at the washing machine and went straight up the stairs to the shower as he was instructed. He would eat dinner with her after he was “presentable,” as Alice had often said.
1. What type of job does Paul do?
doctor
teacher
construction
store clerk
2. Describe Alice
3. What relationship do Paul and Alice have?
Answer:
- Construction worker
- A very tidy person.
- Husband and wife.
Explanation:
- Construction worker, or any profession that requires getting muddy and wear overalls, such as farmer, ditch digger, or miner.
- Alice seems to be someone who insists on having everything clean and tidy, to the point of imposing strict cleaning rules when Paul arrives from work.
- Paul and Alice seem to live together, so they most likely are husband and wife, or maybe mother and son.
Answer:
I would say because the sentence includes a compound noun because the hyphens are to connect "brother-in-law" which is multiple words acting as one word.
