The motorcyclist was fatally injured in the accident and is now fighting for his life. is this a gerund or participle
Kobotan [32]

Answer:

Participle

Explanation:

Participles are verb forms that can be used as adjectives, to create verb tense, or to create the passive voice. There are two types of participles:

  • present participle - they end with -<em>ing;</em>
  • past participle - they end in <em>-ed, -d, -t, -en, or -n.</em>

These endings make it easier for us to recognize these words. In the given sentence, we have the participle <em>fighting</em>. It's a part of the verb phrase<em> is fighting. </em>

A gerund is a noun derived from the verb by adding <em>-ing</em> to its root. Since we can see that <em>fighting </em>isn't a noun here, we know that gerund is the wrong option.

The line "A tree whose hungry mouth is prest" is an example of iambic
Levart [38]
Since the only way to find out if a line is written in a trimeter, or pentameter, etc. is to count the number of syllables, and then divide that number by two to get the meter, that is exactly what we are going to do here.
This line has 8 syllables: (a tree whose hung- ry mouth is prest), we should divide it by 2, which equals 4. 
So, the correct answer is that this line is an example of iambic tetrameter. Tetra means 4.
