Two teams, the Tomcats and the Huskies, battled for the city championship.

An appositive phrase renames the noun that comes directly before it. It is also surrounded by commas since the phrase can be removed from the sentence without altering the grammatical structure. In this sentence, the Tomcats and the Huskies rename, or clarify, which two teams are being talked about. Appositive phrases are frequently used to clarify who or what something is. For example, my sister, Sarah, is happy. The appositive "Sarah" clarifies the name of the sister.

The correct answer is the first option, 'Two teams, the Tomcats and the Huskies, battled for the city championship', because that is the only example which contains an appositive phrase, 'the Tomcats and the Huskies'.

Read the three excerpts from Chapter 5 of Frankenstein.
raketka [301]

1. It was already one in the morning; the rain pattered dismally against the panes, and my candle was nearly burnt out, when, by the glimmer of the half-extinguished light, I saw the dull yellow eye of the creature open; it breathed hard, and a convulsive motion agitated its limbs.

-Personification is shown in this excerpt, specifically in the line "I saw the dull yellow eye of the creature open; it breathed hard, and a convulsive motion agitated its limbs." Because the author is giving human like characteristics to the light.

2. Mingled with this horror, I felt the bitterness of disappointment; dreams that had been my food and pleasant rest for so long a space were now become a hell to me; and the change was so rapid, the overthrow so complete!

- The line "for so long a space were now become a hell to me; and the change was so rapid, the overthrow so complete" uses a metaphor because the vents that take place aren't literally hell, but they are describing it in a way that makes it feels that way.

Answer:

B. Moved by extreme pity for him

Explanation:

The way Douglass describes the fugitive is sorrowful. He uses the words/phrases "merciful," "perfectly helpless," "suffering," "terrible gnawings of hunger,"..... These all lead to the conclusion that Douglass feels extreme pity for him.

So, the answer would be "B. Moved by extreme pity for him."

I hope this helps! :)
