APA style you can never go wrong
Answer:
A gerund is a form of a verb used as a noun, whereas a participle is a form of verb used as an adjective or as a verb in conjunction with an auxiliary verb. An appositive is a noun or noun phrase that modifies a noun. This grammatical construction usually sits next to another noun and modifies it by renaming it or describing it in another way. Appositives are generally offset with commas or dashes.
Examples:
Gerund: Verb: Read; Gerund: Reading; Sentence: Her favorite hobby is reading.
Participle: A participle is an adjective made from a verb. Verb: Sleep; Participle: Sleeping; Phrase: The sleeping dog.
Appositive: Sentence: "The boy raced ahead to the finish line"; Appositive: "The boy, an avid sprinter, raced ahead to the finish line."
For the first two, the difference is really the context of the phrase/sentence. The gerund turns the verb into a noun, turning the <em>action </em>of reading into a <em>thing, </em>or a <em>hobby</em>. A participle phrase takes the <em>action </em>of sleeping and turns it into an adjective, and results in "the sleeping dog."
Answer:
The vote will favor the political party that appointed the judges, especially if the party is still in power when the judicial decisions are made.
Explanation:
In some corrupt climes, we can see this play out heavily. Even in the US, some politicians expect justices to read their lips when delivering judgements. But this cannot be. It will be totally unfair to base judicial decisions on political affiliations and alliances. Justices are not appointed to represent the political party that appointed them. They are appointed to render fair justice using the prevailing laws of the land and on the equality of all persons.
The correct sentence is option two:
There have been many accidents during airshows; for example, last year the wind toppled a tent and equipment on top of bystanders.
The semicolon is a punctuation mark which indicates a pause, usually between two clauses that are not joined by a coordinating conjunction. Semicolons can also replace commas to separate elements in a list that already includes commas.
In the example sentence, the semicolon separates two clauses. Besides, a comma follows the introductory phrase "for example" because it introduces a clause.
