Answer: C) Maya wrote a letter about her new cat to her best friend.
Explanation: an adjective is a word that describes or modify a noun or a pronoun in a sentence. From the given options, the revision that uses an adjective phrase to add more detail is the correspondign to option C: Maya wrote a letter about her new cat to her best friend, because it uses the adjective phrase "about her new cat" that modifies the noun "letter." The other options are incorrect because the first one uses a noun phrase, and the second one and last one use adverbial phrases.
<span>I would rather spend my vacation in a big city
than in a mountain cabin.</span>
Parallel structure refers to having the same
structure or parts of speech in the same sequence and function. In the sentence,
the parallel structure that needs to be paired with is “in a big city” which is
a prepositional phrase; so, the choice that has the same format is “in a
mountain cabin” which is also a prepositional phrase. “To go,” “staying,” and “being”
are obviously different for they are either an infinitive phrase or participial
phrase.
Answer:
Assuming that Team Moon was the first exceprt, the answer would be the following:
The Team Moon excerpt is more emotional and dramatic than the NASA excerpt.
Explanation:
The correct answer is:
The Team Moon excerpt is more emotional and dramatic than the NASA excerpt.
This is because it contains very dramtic words and phrases, including, "panic-stricken, gut-wrenching, [and] heart-palpitating." This while what I assume is the NASA exceprt is very technical and does not exress any emotion whatsoever.
