English

Zina [86]2 years ago

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.

Slav-nsk [51]
The “winter dreams” of the story refer to the American Dream that Dexter<span> comes to embody, but success brings a high cost, and social mobility restricts Dexter’s capacity for happiness. Dexter is from humble origins: his mother was an immigrant who constantly struggled with the language of her adopted homeland. The central irony of the story is that realizing the American Dream yields bleak rewards. For example, when Dexter was a young caddy, he dreamed about success and wealth and the happiness they would bring. When he finally beats T. A. Hedrick in a golf tournament, however, the triumph brings him little joy. Dexter is able to transcend middle-class inertia but, despite his tireless efforts to advance his fortunes, forced to accept that money cannot buy happiness.</span>
