In order for us to answer this question correctly, we need to look at the context of it and use context clues to guess the missing vocabulary accurately. In this sense, context clues are hints, within a sentence or paragraph, that allows us as readers to glimpse the main idea in the sentence and thus choose the best options to complete it. In this case, we are being asked to describe an action, and with the words that are present in the sentece already, we must try to gather the mood and the tone of it, to correctly choose the verbs to use. In essence, this sentence shows a tone of urgency, almost desperation, of someone who needed to reach the dock quickly, but cannot finally do so. As such, the correct choices to complete this sentence would be: jumped and raced because aside from conveying the urgency of the action, they are also the most accurate to describe the action correctly.

Read this sentence and select the dependent clause.
KengaRu [80]
Basically look at the options and say them out loud. If it sounds like a full complete sentence, its a dependent clause. It can be its own sentence!


In this case, that option is B. Hope this helps!

Is the following a strong or weak argument? How do you know? Identify the words or phrases that tell you what type of argument i
Trava [24]

Answer:

Weak argument.

Explanation:

The argument given gives a lot of personal opinions and does not cite evidence. They also fail to use relevant information, and false information. I.E "In fact, every kid likes to play video games." This has no roots in facts and no cited evidence given to prove other wise. There's also a bit of passive voice misuse here, "<u>Some</u> college kids can win lots of different games." You shouldn't use words like some/many/may in an argument. It makes your point look weak, you need to be strong and affirmative.
