Answer:

Jan and Daniel <u><em>had been</em></u> on an adventure together before the polar challenge.

Explanation:

The use of "had been" or "were" depends on the time frame of the event. "Had been"(past perfect continuous) is used for a past event that is also applicable for the present or current event. Whereas, "were" (past tense of ‘be’) is used for a single past event that no longer applies to another event.

In the given sentence, Jan Meek and her son Daniel are together on the polar challenge. And they had been on an adventure before the polar challenge, which justifies the use of "had been". This shows that the duo's adventure is not a one-time event but that they were together for a previous adventure and are had gone on another after that previous one.  

Thus, the correct verb is "had been".

2. Why doesn't Samuel's
abruzzese [7]

Answer:

(a) Florida belongs to the Spanish.

Explanation:

Elisa Carbone's novel "Blood on the River" revolves around the story of a British teenager and his journey to James Town in America. The novel follows Samuel Collier and his journey by sea, going to the new settlement of Jamestown in America, which the British had conquered/ colonized.

Samuel was one of the many passengers on <em>"The Susan Constant"</em> making its way to America. Though he was a page of the ship's captain, Captain John Smith, Samuel also wanted to explore and go to the New World, that is America. But as they traveled along, the ship doesn't dock in Florida as the place was under the Spanish. And at that time, the Spanish and the British were all fighting to get more land colonized for their respective kings or empires.

Thus, the correct answer is option a.

Select the sentence that is punctuated correctly.
rosijanka [135]
B. 
<span>Unemployment is high in many fields, but there are jobs available in telecommunications.


A comma is used when it is placed after the end of one independent clause and the beginning of another which follows one such clause. The two independent clauses must be joined with words known as co-ordinating conjunctions. Examples of such words are, but, and,or so etc. 
In this sentence but is used, </span>preceded by a comma so it is the right one.
