Answer:
<u>Canning </u>or<u> freezing</u> keeps food from spoiling.
Explanation:
I've underlined the subject and written the predicate in bold letters.
The subject is the part of the sentence that tells us who or what is performing an action expressed by the verb. It can also tell us who or what is being described by the predicate.
The predicate tells us what the subject is doing or describes the subject.
Here, the subject are the words <em>canning</em> and<em> freezing</em>. This is a compound subject - a subject that consists of two or more simple subjects that share a verb or verb phrase. The verb these words share is <em>keeps</em>. This verb is a part of the complete predicate: <em>keeps food from spoiling.</em>
To confirm this, we can ask:
- for the subject - <em>What keeps food from spoiling? </em><em>Canning or freezing.</em>
- for the predicate - <em>What does canning or freezing do? It </em><em>keeps</em><em> </em><em>food from spoiling.</em>

2. What literary device does Shakespeare use to develop Helena's character?
- METAPHOR
Based on the lines, metaphor was used because Helena's character wishes to follow Demetrius likened to a dog (spaniel). Just like a dog, even if the master hurts or hits him, he will still remain loyal and true. Just like Helena's devotion to Demetrius.

- Lysander tells Hermia that he hopes he dies before his loyalty to her ends. This is ironic because his loyalty will end as he sleeps when Puck does him with the love potion.
4. What is an example of dramatic irony is this Act?
-Bottom is unaware that his head has been transformed into a donkey's head. The audience knows that he has a donkey's head, but he has no idea!
Bottom thought that the other characters has been playing a trick on him so he cannot continue with his performance as Pyramus.
5. What do these lines reveal about Helena?
- She distrusts Demetrius and Lysander's feelings for her.
Helena has always considered herself inferior to Hermia. She knows that the one guy she likes is in love with Hermia. That's why she cannot trust her feelings when Lysander and Demetrius came courting her.

I hope this helps :)
Answer:
B). "He found that children and adults who have read stories their whole lives were more likely to correctly identify the feelings and thoughts of others than those who do not read regularly."
C). "Trying to understand these characters exercises the same mental muscle that helps us understand people in the real world."
Explanation:
The above two evidence factually support and substantiate the claim that 'people who read stories are better at communicating and understanding the feelings of others.'
The first evidence i.e. option B states that <u>the research revealed 'the children or adults who have been reading stories constantly their whole lives are able to recognize the thoughts or feelings of others more accurately' while the second evidence i.e. option C asserts logically that 'in attempt to understand the characters of stories, the same mental muscle is required for understanding people in real life.'</u>
Thus, these two pieces of evidence not only support but substantiates how reading comprehends our understanding of thoughts, opinions, or feelings of others. Hence, <u>options B and C</u> are the correct answers.
The correct answer is I and III only.
When you read a text and want to decide what the author's purpose for writing it was, then you need to take a look at the evidence he or she presented, as well as whether or not that evidence was appropriate. What is irrelevant here, however, is how fast or how slow you read the text - that has nothing to do with the author's purpose.
