klasskru [66]

Read the excerpt from Outcasts United.

Luma ordered him to stand in goal. She took off her shoes as the boy waited beneath the crossbar, rocking back and forth and growing more anxious by the moment. She asked for a ball, which she placed on the grass. Then, barefoot, as the team looked on, she blasted a shot directly at the boy, who dove out of the way as the ball rocketed into the net. Luma turned toward her team. "Anybody else?" she asked. Take a look at this chart of Luma’s actions listed in chronological order.

Which sentence best fills in the blank? She asks for the ball.

She hears the boy talking about her. She shows off her ball skills.

She rocks back and forth.

Answer:

She asks for the ball

Explanation:

According to the excerpt from Outcasts United, Luma is said to have ordered someone to stand in goal and she took off her shoes and blasted a shot, which the person standing in the goal had to dive out of the way. Luma asks if there was anyone else that wanted to stand in goal.

Therefore, the sentence that best fills in the blank is "she asks for the ball".

1. The now famous Carl Sandburg was born in 1878 in Galesburg, Illinois.
Anika [276]
1. Assuming that the underlined words are 'Carl Sandburg,' the correct answer is A. simple subject. Although you may be led to believe this is a complete subject (because it consists of more than one word), in fact, it is not. Carl Sandburg is the name and the surname of one person, which is why it is considered to be a simple, rather than a complete subject.

2. Assuming that the underlined words are '<span>served as a soldier during the Spanish-American War,' the correct answer is D. complete predicate. As you can see, these words include the simple verb served, as well as all other words which modify, or describe that verb. This is why this is complete, rather than a simple predicate. Simple predicate would be only the word served.

3. Assuming that the underlined words are 'would influence,' the correct answer is B. simple predicate. Similarly to the first sentence, you may be led to believe this is complete because there are more than one word in the phrase. However, the verb phrase would influence is considered to be one entity given that it is only a particular tense of that verb. Even if it said 'had been influencing' instead of 'would influence,' it would still be a simple predicate.</span>
