The correct answer is A. My father, a huge baseball fan, taught me to throw when I was three.

Explanation

An appositive expression is a sentence that is composed of a noun or a noun phrase that is followed by another noun or pronoun and explains it in the complement of the sentence. For the above, it can be said that the correct answer is "A. My father, a huge baseball fan, taught me to throw when I was three" because it has the first noun "My father", the second noun "a huge baseball fan "and the complement where he explains it" taught me to throw when I was three"

The beaches I visited in Aruba had clear turquoise water. I'd seen the same clear turquoise water in the brochures. Now combine
ElenaW [278]

Answer:

The beaches I visited in Aruba had the same clear turquoise water that I had seen in the brochures.

Explanation:

<u>A relative clause, or adjective clause, is a group words that has a subject and a verb. It functions like an adjective would, offering information about a noun in the sentence. This type of clause starts with a relative pronoun or a relative adverb (who, whom, that, which, when, etc.)</u>

When we have two sentences that mention the same thing or person, we can often change one of the sentences into a relative clause. To do so, we add the relative pronoun and drop anything that is repetitive. Let's do that to the sentences that were provided in the question:

1. The beaches I visited in Aruba had clear turquoise water.

2. I'd seen the same clear turquoise water in the brochures.

Combined sentence: The beaches I visited in Aruba had <u>the same clear turquoise water</u> that I had seen in the brochures.

We did not need to repeat "clear turquoise water." We combined the sentences by transforming sentence 2 into a relative clause.
