Answer and Explanation:

Cleft sentences are used to connect something previously understood to new information or to emphasize something by placing it in a different clause. When we use this type of structure, we are basically dividing a piece of information into two clauses. It is common to use <em>it</em> or <em>wh-</em> words to form the cleft sentence.

1. I don't like a manager who acts like a tyrant. = What I don't like is a manager who acts like a tyrant.

2. We're looking for someone who is a team player. - What we are looking for is someone who is a team player.

3. He would prefer to walk to the theater. - What he would prefer is to walk to the theater.

4. She wrote the most popular mystery novel of the year. - It was she who wrote the most popular mystery novel of the year. / What she wrote was the most popular mystery novel of the year.

5. We saw the most dangerous snake in the world. - What we saw was the most dangerous snake in the world. / It was the most dangerous snake in the world that we saw.

6. She had a terrible case of the flu. - What she had was a terrible case of the flu.

7. I don't understand why someone took my headphones. - What I don't understand is why someone took my headphones.

According to postman,what is the danger of using tv as a "castle-in-the-air"?
polet [3.4K]
The term "castle-in-the-air" is actually a term that means something that is imaginary and extravagant and most likely are not realized or carried out. In other words, this is similar to the term "daydream". When we use TV as <span>"castle-in-the-air", the danger for this is that people tend to view something as a reality instead of just accepting it as fantasy. Hope this helps.</span>

MakcuM [25]

I agree because it doesnt matter about your look, it matters about your character. your character, not your style judges you. I agree with angela because being pretty is not a factor. I have no disagreeing statements.
