Answer:

A. Crawled

Explanation:

You are given the sentence:

The baby crawled slowly toward her favorite toy.

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

How did the baby crawl? Slowly.

Which question would help you predict that the author of “Occupation: Conductorette” would get the job as a conductor? A. Where

34kurt

Answer:

The answer is: How much does the author want the job?

Explanation:

From Angelous' experience, we learned many lessons, one of the main ones after reading "Occupation: Conductorette” was persistence. If Angelous hadn't gone to the company every day (being persistent) for she wanted so much the job, otherwise, she wouldn't have continued going there after her first visit in which the lady denied that there was help wanted. But her persistency meant, how much did she really wanted the job. You are persistent when you really want something, when you don't, you just stop trying on the first time.
