Anna [14]3 years ago

Answer:

TRUE

Explanation:

The subject of a sentence is the thing, name or object being described in a sentence.

A simple predicate verb is the major verb of a sentence that says what the subject of the sentence does.

A prepositional phrase is a set of words that begin with a preposition and end with a pronoun or a noun. Examples include;

  • "around the house"  -  around- preposition, house- noun
  • "up the ladder"         -  up- preposition, ladder- noun

Because prepositional phrases may contain a noun and the subject of  sentence is a noun, identifying the subject and the simple predicate verb may be difficult.

Therefore, it is necessary to identify and eliminate the prepositional phrases in sentences so as to easily identify the subject and the simple predicate verb.

Why were Annabeth and Grover so eager to leave when they finished eating? *
erica [24]

Answer:

Because the Summer Solstice was nearing and because Ares had them nervous and because they were fugitives.

Explanation:

They had only a few days left before the summer solstice would pass. But they were hungry so they stopped for a quick bite or two. After scraping up a few dollars they bought a burger and settled down. To their surprise, Ares came in and sat down beside them and bought them another burger. He handed them a bag of supplies, a warning and was gone. With tension and responsibility on their shoulders, they wanted to leave and get things done.

Words in texting all look the same, such as a dystopian society would. In writing everyone has a unique style. It’s not always about what you write but how it’s written, such as cursive showing more raw emotion while plain text shows more of a educational point.
