Which word is the preposition and which word is the object of the preposition in the sentence?

just olya [345]

Very simple, the prepositional phrase in the sentence is "Near the wooded island." The preposition is always at the beginning of the prepositional phrase and in this instance it would be 'near'. Likewise, the object of the preposition is always at the end of the prepositional phrase and in this case is 'island'. So the answer to this problem is C.

IrinaK [193]

Answer:

Introduction

This book will look at homeschooling from two perspectives. It will show how homeschooling affects both teachers and students. I will show that there are both pros and cons to homeschooling.

Though it is not for everyone, there are ways that homeschooling can support certain types of students. Students can work at their own pace and explore subject areas that interest them in depth.

However, they may also feel separated from peers. In addition, homeschooling is a lot of work for parents and guardians. It requires a lot of resources.

The book will also attempt to answer questions about homeschooling. For example, what is it like to learn outside of a traditional classroom? What does a student gain? And what might they lose? What do classroom teachers think of homeschooling? And how are parents and guardians affected? These and other difficult questions will be considered throughout the text.

Identify each of the underlined phrases as restrictive or nonrestrictive. Her porcelain doll, a rare collector's item, was sold

Semenov [28]

Although there are no underlined phrases, from the definition of a phrase, we are able to know which are the phrases we need to work with.

A phrase is a group of words that stand together as a single unit, that does not contain either a subject or a verb, and therefore, it has to be part of a sentence so that it could make sense. Phrases always provide further information about something whether a noun, an adverb, a verb or an adjective.

A nonrestrictive phrase is a phrase that contains information that is not essential to the sentence, that is to say, without it, the sentence would still make complete sense, and they are usually framed by commas when placed in the middle of a sentence, or followed by an only comma when they are the last part of the sentence.

As a restrictive phrase, on the other hand, is one that is essential to the meaning of the sentence, without it, the sentence would seem incomplete, unspecific, vague. Therefore restrictive phrases can not be taken out of sentence, and it never has commas.

From this explanation, we can easily identify which one is restrictive or nonrestrictive in the following sentences (the phrases are underlined):

Her porcelain doll, a rare collector's item, was sold at auction = a restrictive phrase.

Chris went to Seattle to visit his aunt, a professional chef = a restrictive phrase.

The boy with the baseball cap would like to have a turn = a restrictive phrase (without this phrase we would not be able to know which boy would like to have a turn, therefore the sentence would be missing essential information)
