English

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.

Is the word sand a homograph?
Mrrafil [7]
<span><span>Yes, the word "sand" is indeed a homograph. Homographs are defined as words (usually pairs) having the same spelling. They aren’t necessarily pronounced the same. In fact some words completely change their meaning when there is a shift in the pronunciation. But they should always be used in the proper context, since they will have different meanings. In this case, "sand" is a homograph since it can be used either "put or sprinkle sand", "polish using a sandpaper", or "a granular substance formed from </span>soil erosion". </span>

Which sentence is an example of faulty coordination?
levacccp [35]

Answer:

d). Helen and Evan went to see the movie, and it was a very good movie.

Explanation:

The last sentence i.e. 'Helen and Evan...good movie' demonstrates faulty coordination as the second clause linked through the coordinating conjunction 'and' employs a wrong antecedent 'it.' <u>'It' is a singular pronoun which is incorrectly used to refer to the plural noun 'Helen and Evan</u>.' <u>Another error in the sentence is that the first clause talks about 'Helen and Evan' while the second clause abruptly shifts to the movie which puzzles the meaning of the sentence</u>. Hence, it is erroneous coordination and therefore, <u>option d</u> is the correct answer.
