Which word in the following sentence is modified by an adverb?

English
1 answer:

4 0

Answer:

A. Crawled

Explanation:

You are given the sentence:

The baby crawled slowly toward her favorite toy.

Your <u>subject/direct object</u> in this sentence, is the baby. Next you ask yourself, <em>what is the baby doing?</em> Crawling. This is your <u>verb</u>. The next thing to do, is recognize your adverb, which in this case, would be the word slowly. This would be a descriptive adverb, that <u>many would mistake for an adjective</u>, but looking into the sentence, we see that the adjective is the word, favorite, as it <u>modifies the noun</u>, toy. An <u>adverb </u>modifies a <em>noun</em>, a <em>verb</em>,  an <em>adjective</em>, or <em>another adverb</em>. The word slowly in this sentence is modifying the verb crawled.

How did the baby crawl? Slowly.

Which two thesis statements are best for a literary analysis essay on recurring themes in Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet?
svet-max [94.6K]
I would say that these are the two thesis statements best for a literary analysis essay on recurring themes in Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet:
1. In Romeo and Juliet, Shakespeare demonstrates that love comes in a variety of forms, be it romantic, familial, or between friends.
2. Shakespeare explores the struggle for identity through the character of Juliet in his play Romeo and Juliet.
The other theses aren't reoccurring in this play.
