What is a linking verb, action verb, helping verb?

English
2 answers:
Zina [86]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

A linking verb connects the subject with a word that gives information about the subject, such as a condition or relationship. They do not show any action; they simply link the subject with the rest of the sentence. The most common linking verbs are forms of the verb to be: am, is, are, was, were, being, been.

An action verb explains what the subject of the sentence is doing or has done.

A helping verb helps out the main verb in a sentence.

Answer:

A linking verb is a verb that connects the subject with an adjective or a noun that describes it. ... (TURNED connects the subject AMY with the adjective RED.) A helping verb (also called an "auxiliary verb") is a verb that is used together with the main verb of the sentence to express the action. An action verb is a verb that expresses physical or mental action.

Considering you have to write about a teen who wants to earn money, make it interesting at least. 

You can have the teen (male or female) struggling to get money as they are handling high school, sports (if you want to make them do sports), and other things.

Everybody knows that it's definitely a struggle to be a student and work at the same time, but in the end it eventually it pays off. I'd base this idea off of society nowadays, where teens become pregnant to just get free money off of the government because they're a single mom. How about the teens who actually want to do something in life?

 - I'd start out with the teen a month into their job they have at the moment, juggling exams in school and other classes. Maybe they eventually figure out that the job they have currently is doing no good for them (insert a low pay check?). They are soon to graduate, and don't know if they can afford a college to go to. They decide to resign from their job and search for another, even if it's short time such as doing things for neighbors (mowing, babysitting, etc). They eventually find a job where they feel appreciated at and happy to work for. Soon enough, after all of the hard work they have been put through and done, they finally have enough money to pay for a college tuition, a college that they actually wanted to go to in the first place. I'd suggest to add in friends along the way that help the teen get motivated and where they are today.

It's just an idea, but this would be definitely something I would write about.

How will Charlie most likely change after his experience at the diner in part 2 of "Flowers for Algernon"?
loris [4]

Answer:

He will be more sympathetic to those who are similar to the way he once was.

Explanation:

From the book, "Flowers for Algernon" by Daniel Keyes, Charlie Gordon was once mentally ret*rded but he became more intelligent after he underwent surgery.

He has an experience in the diner one day after a mentally ret*rded boy mistakenly crashes some plates and receives cruel taunts from the other customers and the boy who does not know he is being taunted and insulted, smiles with them and this episode makes Charlie so angry that he shouts to the insensitive crowd that the boy is a human and thus deserves respect.

This experience would likely change Charlie because He will be more sympathetic to those who are similar to the way he once was.

What is the author’s purpose in using a mirror as a symbol??
Alik [6]
Author's purpose for using a mirror varies. For example Laurie Halse Anderson, in her book Speak, uses the mirror as a symbol, to show Melinda's frustrations towards herself, such as appearance.
Seeing that Melinda was rap ed, she after avoids the mirror at all times. This can be interpreted as her inability to face her feelings. She also states "she can't see herself", and that shows us that her sense of identity has been altered by the rap e.
It's safe to say that a mirror can be a symbol of physical and spiritual reflection. Hope this helps.
