Answer:

had rained

Explanation:

Past perfect tenses are used to show that an event occurred before a specific time in the past. Formation of the past perfect tense entails a combination of the past tense of the verb to have, with the past participle of the verb being talked about.

In the sentence above, had is merged with rained to form the past perfect tense. Therefore, the correct sentence is;

The ground was wet because it had rained.

Identify the compound noun in the following sentence.
dlinn [17]

The compound noun in the sentence is A. life cycles.

<u>A compound noun is a word formed by two or more words</u>. The first one generally indicates the type of object/person; in other words, it classifies the object or person presented in the second word. Furthermore, compound nouns have a different meaning than the meaning of the two words taken separately.  

In this sentence,<u> "life cycles" is a compound noun because it has been formed with the words "life" and "cycles", which are also two nouns.</u> "Life", in this case, is indicating the kind of cycle that the sentence is referring to. In that way,<u> the compound noun "life cycles", defined as the series of stages that a living organism goes through during its whole life, does not have the same meaning than the words "life" and "cycles" taken alone</u>.

Answer :

2. She was pleased by the girl's enthusiasm

While telling Da-duh about New York the narrator showed her that she could dance by dancing the truck - a dance popular in the thirties.

Da-duh was somehow pleased with girl's enthusiasm and gave her a penny to go buy herself a sweet from the sweet shop up the road.
