Q5. Fifteen kilometers____

English
1 answer:
mezya [45]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

5. Fifteen kilometers <em><u>is</u></em> a nice distance to ski in an afternoon.

6.  Analyzing sentences for grammatical purposes <em><u>is</u></em> even better than watching paint dry.

7. Economics <em><u>is</u></em> almost as fascinating as accounting.

Explanation:

The use of "is" or "are" depends majorly on the condition of the noun involved. This means that if the noun is singular, we use "is" while for plural nouns, we use "are".

In the given sentences, "is" and "are" are used as follows-

5. In this sentence, the distance "fifteen kilometers" is taken as a single unit even though the word "kilometers" is in the plural state. Thus, the helping verb will be "is".

6. Here, the verb "analyzing" is taken as a gerund, thereby functioning as a noun. And so, the helping verb used will be "is".

7. Similarly, this sentence contains the noun "economics" which is a branch of study and thereby taken as a singular noun. Thus, the verb will be "is".

Thus, in all three sentences, the helping verb used will be "is".

Explain in 1 paragraph why people need to be focused on their
dlinn [17]

"You do not rise to the level of your goals. you fall to the level of your systems" is one famous quote by James Clear on goals and systems.

Explanation:

People mainly talk about setting goals to achieve an objective, but setting goals does not necessarily lead to a success in achieving the objective. One might succeed in few goals that are laid out , but be unsuccessful in others.

The results that one gets, have very little to do with the goals, and everything with the system that one follows.

For example: the goal of a businessman would be, to be very successful in his business and  earn billions of dollars. But, he has to use the right system to do so.

Hiring the right kind of employee, the right advertisement campaigns etc is the system by which he can reach his goals. Thus, only setting goals should not be given priority, but priority should be given to the systems that help in achieving the goal.
