2. A good name <em>is</em> <u>priceless</u>.

3. The day <em>is</em> <u>cold and dark</u>.

4. We <em>should be</em> <u>reasonable</u>.

5. No one<em> is</em> <u>good</u> (at this).

6. The sword <em>is</em> <u>quick and powerful</u>.

7. The rich man is <u>wealthy</u> (beyond imagination).

8. The sky <em>grew</em> <u>dark</u> (as the storm approached).

9. The hamburger <em>tasted</em> <u>greasy</u>.

Explanation:

A prepositional phrase is used to modify a verb or a noun and usually begins with a preposition, an object and sometimes a word that modifies the object. A predicate adjective modifies the noun in a sentence and the adjective is usually connected to the subject through a linking verb.

In question 2, the subject, "Good men", is qualified with the adjective, priceless. The linking verb, "is", connects the subject to the adjective. The prepositional phrases usually begins with the preposition.

How dose the author of passage 2 BEST convey the point of view that personality development is extremely complex
quester [9]

Hello. You did not enter the text to which this question refers, which makes it impossible for this question to be answered accurately. However, I will try to help you in the best possible way.

The author may have presented that the development of personality is complex, showing how there are many elements acting in this development and countless elements that can modify this development at any time. To illustrate this, the author can make a comparison between personality development and a complex system, such as the development of a plant or an embryo for example.

Make a short story 750-1000 words about anything
Nady [450]

Answer:

It was very early in the morning, the streets clean and deserted, I was walking to the station. As I compared the tower clock with my watch I realized that it was already much later than I had thought, I had to hurry, the shock of this discovery made me unsure of the way, I did not yet know my way very well in this town; luckily, a policeman was nearby, I ran up to him and breathlessly asked him the way. He smiled and said: “From me you want to know the way?” “Yes,” I said, “since I cannot find it myself.” “Give it up! Give it up,” he said, and turned away with a sudden shout, like people who want to be alone with their laughter.
