Answer:
As if merely <em><u>subsisting</u></em> according to his self-imposed rules weren’t strenuous enough…
Explanation:
The word "subsist" is a gerund that means sustenance, dependent, survival on one's own. In other words, it means the ability or capacity to support and survive by oneself on a minimal level.
The given line<em> "as if merely subsisting according to his self-imposed rules weren't strenuous enough..."</em> is from Jon Krakauer's "Into the Wild." The lines go like this-
<em>As if merely subsisting according to his self-imposed rules weren't strenuous enough, Rosellini also exercised compulsively whenever he wasn't occupied with foraging. He filled his days with calisthenics, weight lifting, and running, often with a load of rocks on his back. During one apparently typical summer, he reported covering an average of eighteen miles daily.</em>
Thus, the correct word for the blank in the line is "subsisting".
D) <em>Alan and </em><u><em>I </em></u><em>baked a strawberry-rhubarb pie</em>. This is the correct option.
The underlined pronoun is in the nominative case. The nominative case is needed before the verb "To bake",
These options are not right.
-A) Yesterday Bob and <em>me</em> worked at the outdoor market. ( The objective pronoun "me" should be replaced by the nominative "I". "To work" needs nominative cases).
B) Last Saturday <em>them</em> and <em>her </em>went to the movies. ( The objective cases "them" and "her" are wrong . "They" and " she" are the correct form.)
C) is that <em>her</em> at the front door? ( This is correct but "her" is in the objective case not in the nominative).
Answer:
C. Haven't
Explanation:
I figured this out by the process of elimination.
"They decided to have a wash <em>have </em>they." This sentence doesn't make sense because this is not the right word to fill in the blank.
"They decided to have a wash, didn't they." Also does not make sense because it is not the right type of past, present, or future tense.
"They decided to have a wash, haven't they." This is the only word that fits this sentence.
