Answer: A. Hawthorne is giving a lesson Franklin learned that readers might also profit from
Explanation:
Hawthorne is obviously not giving his own thoughts, since Franklin said this and it is a quote. He also cannot be trying to get young readers to relate because there is nothing in the excerpt about being a boy. Franklin probably had some experience and learned this lesson from it.
Answer:
Ending a sentence with a preposition is believed by a lot of people to be incorrect.
Explanation:
Preposition is a word which is used to create a relationship between other words in a sentence. Ending a sentence with preposition according to John Dryden a dramatist in 1672 said that <em>'since one cannot end a sentence with preposition in Latin, one should not do it in English either."</em>
Ending a sentence with preposition such as 'at, or, with, of, is prohibited in English language. Ending a sentence with a preposition especially in research paper or business proposal, sounds less formal. Therefore it is a rule not to end a sentence with preposition.
The noun phrase in the sentence above is the first option - the gooey, chocolate fudge brownies.
You have to write the whole thing and not separate these words because they are intricately connected into one noun phrase, so you cannot say just fudge brownies because that's not the whole phrase.
Tasted perfect is a verb phrase, and topped with icecream is an adjective phrase.
