Which of these sentences is best written?

Which of the following sentences contain an adverb clause?

Jlenok [28]

The correct answer is: [A]:
________________________________________________________
"People will not get ahead if they do not study."
________________________________________________________
Explanation:
________________________________________________________
Note that one (1) feature of an "adverb clause" is that an "adverb clause" must begin with a "subordinating conjunction".
________________________________________________________
The only answer choices provided that meet this criterion are:
________________________________________________________
Choice: [A]: "People will not get ahead if they do not study."

In this sentence, there is a "subordinating conjunction"— which is—" if ".
________________________________________________________
Choice: [C]: " Because of the defensive driving lessons, I am probably a better driving today ".

In this sentence, there is a "subordinating conjunction"
— which is—"Because" .
________________________________________________________
Note the other criteria for "adverb clauses" — as follows:
________________________________________________________
1) Adverb clauses are "modifiers".

2) Adverb clauses contain both a subject AND a verb.

3) Adverb clauses, on their own, do not form complete sentences.
_______________________________________________________
Consider: Choice: [C]:
_______________________________________________________
"Because of the defensive driving lessons, I am probably a better driving today."

→ Note: Since the particular clause beings with the "subordinating conjunction—"Because" (in this case) — consider the phrase:
_______________________________________________________
"Because of the defense driving lessons" ;

→ This is NOT an "adverb clause". An "adverb clause" must contain BOTH a "noun" AND a "verb"— and this particular clause does NOT contain a "verb".

Rule out "Choice: [C] " .
___________________________________________________________
Consider:

"Choice: [A]: "People will not get ahead if they do not study."

→ Note: Since the particular clause beings with the "subordinating conjunction"—" if " (in this case) — consider the phrase:
_______________________________________________________
 " if they do not study ."
_______________________________________________________

→ Note the following:
_______________________________________________________
1) This clause contains BOTH a "noun" —which is: "they" (a subject pronoun referring to "people"); AND a "verb" —which is: "do [not] study" .

2) This clause modifies "people" .

3) This clause is a NOT a sentence if it stands alone.
___________________________________________________________
Thus; this very answer choice: "Answer choice: [A]:
__________________________________________________________
→ "People will not get ahead if they do not study."
__________________________________________________________
→ is the only sentence —
 (among the answer choices provided) —
that: 1) is an "adverb clause" ; AND:
that: 2) is the correct answer.

Use past perfect form plz help look photo i will give brainliest

jeyben [28]

Answer:

1. Had had.

2. Hadn't tidied.

3. Had done.

4. Had tidied.

5. Hadn't done.

6. Hadn't seen.

Explanation:

A verb is one of the parts of speech in English language. Verbs can be defined as any word that describes an action, occurrence, or state of existence. Some examples of verb are dance, sing, walk, play, run, sit, etc.

In English language, to form a past perfect tense, you should use the past tense of "have" which is had in addition with the past participle of the main verb such as tidy, see, do, clean, etc.

This ultimately implies that, a past perfect tense comprises of two main parts; the past tense of have (had) and the past participle of the main verb.

Some examples of past perfect tense include the following;

1. Amy didn't invite Jack to the party because they had had (have) a fight earlier in the week. The past participle of "have" is had.

2. Daisy's dad was angry with her because she hadn't tidied (not tidy) her bedroom. The past perfect form of "not tidy" is hadn't tidied.

3. I didn't have to take the dog for a walk because Joey had (have) already done (do) it. The past participle of "have" and "do" are had and done respectively.

4. The house was looking really clean because mum and dad had tidied (tidy) everything away. The past participle of "tidy" is had tidied.

5. Kim had to miss her homework because she hadn't done (not do) her homework. The past perfect form of "not do" is hadn't done.

6. The driver almost caused an accident because he hadn't seen (not see) the red light. The past perfect form of "not see" is hadn't seen.

Choose the answer that identifies the noun clause.

katovenus [111]

The correct answers are: 1)4 Mom doesn't know is the subject or main clause, in the kitchen isn't a clause as it lacks a verb and a subject, the 4rth choice is the most complete one. 2)1 It can't be the object since "That she read the assignment" is the "subject" of the verb itself, but it isn't the proper subject because the true subject is "Kam's choice"; it is an appositive clause related to the subject. 3)A the verb is a nominal predicative, thus technically it would be a direct object, but most grammar quizzes or books won't consider it as such. The most correct answer would therefore be A, because reversing the sentence this role would be possible.

Then a sheep confessed to having urinated in the drinking pool—urged to do this, so she said, by Snowball—and two other sheep co

Tema [17]

The correct answer is "It shows similarities with Stalin's Great Purge and reveals how dictators use fear to control people".

Stalin used diverse tactics to deceit the people and gain control over his image. Once he got to a position of perceived power, he used the secret police in the same way that Napoleon uses his dogs: to quiet down the opposition with the use of force and fear-spreading. Public displays of violence as a form of punishment result in a society controlled by fear, where everyone behaves according to the imposition of a tyrant or dictator.

Hope this is helpful to you!
