B. On the fire escape sit two stray cats

A general rule is that subject has to match verb.

(A) is wrong because one rabbit HOPS, not hop
(C) is wrong because two lands WERE at war, not was
(D) is wrong because they HAVE, not has
(B) is correct because two stray cats sit

*notice that when there's an "s" in the noun, or if the noun is plural, then the verb lacks an "s", and when there isn't an "s" at the end of the noun (it's singular), then the verb DOES have an "s". This is the rule of thumb (there are exceptions though)

Answer: snug as a gun

Explanation:

"The simile 'snug as a gun' is startling when it appears in the poem "Digging." After just a line and a half, Heaney has already created an image of a writer sitting down to quietly reflect and contemplate, with the pen "resting" and "snug." When "gun" follows these two peaceful words, it suggests that the poem won't be.."

Imagine you are writing a script about your favorite childhood memory. In the space below, write 5-7 lines of character

SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

Background Context: I spent the night at my friend's house just to spend time with my boyfriend, but I told my mom I was at my female friend's house when in actuality I was going to a guy's house to spend the night. My boyfriend and his brother got in trouble for not answering their phones when the phones were dead and charging so their dad went to pick them up and I decided to go home afterwards.

Boy 1: "My dad is on his way to pick my brother and I up. He doesn't know your here, nor do your parents. After I leave, you need to go home."

Girl: "I know, I know. Be careful, don't let your dad see me, or find out that I spent the night, after your brother and you leave, Boy 3 and I will walk to my place."

Boy 2: "Dad is here, Boy 1, lets go before he gets mad."

Boy 1: "I'm coming. Girl, be safe, its almost dark and I don't want you to get hurt or taken by some stranger. Boy 3, make sure she gets home safe, and make sure her mom doesn't know about this."

Boy 3" I will and I promise to watch her as we walk to her home, they will never find out"

*Boy 1 and 2 leave. 10 minutes pass and Girl and Boy 3 leave to Girl's home*

Boy 3: "So what would happen if your mother found out you lied about going to your friends house, when you really spent the night at my house just to spend time with Boy 1?"

Girl: "She would kill me if she found out! I would be grounded for life and would be locked up in my room until the day I die"

Boy 3: "So she would punish you, ground you for a few months and not let you go to any friend's house until you move out?"

Girl: "Precisely"

Boy 3: "Well, then lets get you home before she gets back from work"

Girl: "Race ya."

Boy 3: "You're on!"
