Answer:

C: Chore.

Explanation:

A pastime is something done to occupy time. It is an agreeable thing to be done. It therefore is not the answer.

A pursuit is more serious. It is an activity that is meant to find an answer, one that may evade one for a long period of time. But a pursuit is not a disagreeable activity; it is one done willingly. A pursuit is not the answer.

An activity is a neutral word. It is anything that is done. In itself is not anything either agreeable or disagreeable.

Chore is the word I would pick. That is a job that must be done. It suggests repetitiveness. It does not have to be agreeable. I'd pick this one. The dictionary says that it can be a disagreeable task.

Answer:

Chore

Explanation:

Hi,

Pastime doesn't really have a negative connotation basically means how things agree. Pursuit doesn't either neither does activity. Maybe chore? Kids usually use chores as a way of saying they're being forced to do something they don't want to do. Pretty sure it's the only answer that actually makes sense.

I hope this helps :)

Orlov [11]
<span>The statement about the sentence that is true is B. the sentence needs commas because the participial phrase is nonsessential. Nonessential phrases, unlike essential ones, are not that important in a sentence, and can thus be easily removed without changing the meaning of the sentence drastically. They are always set off from the rest of the sentence by commas, whereas essential phrases don't have commas around them. Here, the nonessential phrase is cradling the baseball in his mitt.</span>
