Excitement between the two groups have risen after the election. is this correct

English
1 answer:
Mashutka [201]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The subject-verb agreement is wrong. The correct sentence would be:

- Excitement between the two groups has risen after the election.

Explanation:

<u>If we ask the verb a simple question, we can find the subject: "What has risen after the election? Excitement between the two groups." Even though the answer is long, the simple subject itself is comprised of just one singular word: "excitement". This is the most important word, the one to which the verb refers. We can even remove the words that come after it, and the effect or meaning will be the same: "Excitement has risen after the election."</u>

The problem with "Excitement between the two groups have risen after the election" is that "have" is agreeing with "groups". However, as seen above, "groups" is not the most important word in the subject. Therefore, the verb should not agree with it.

Grammer<br> how do i tell the simple past tense apart from the past continuous tense
Ganezh [65]

Answer:

The main difference between past simple and past continuous tense is that:

  • we use<u> past simple tense</u> when something happened at some time in past. We also commonly use this tense with past time adverbs (yesterday, last night, two days ago, etc.)

For example: John called his friend yesterday.

  • we use <u>past continuous tense</u> if an action occurred in the past and <u>lasted for a period of time.</u>

Example: I was reading a book all day yesterday.

We used past continuous tense because the action of reading lasted for some time (a whole day in this case).

Which interpretation is a possible theme of Ovid’s “The story of Daedalus and Icarus”
babunello [35]

The correct answer is C.

A possible theme of Ovid's "The Story of Daedalus and Icarus" is how human creativity can lead to amazing discoveries, gagdets and inventions; but at the same time these can easily lead to pain and suffering if used in the wrong way.

In the story, Daeadalus was a great inventor, but it was his own device that caused his son's death. Icarus' recklessness lead him to ignore his father's warnings about flying too high or too low, and his wrong usage of the man-made wings lead him to his doom.
