I think words and math are important because you use words everyday and if you don't have a very good vocabulary you wont be able to talk to people. Math is also important because you need to know how to count or you wont be able to get a decent job and it also comes in handy when cooking or telling time.
Answer:
Luke plays the drums in the orchestra if Katya plays the clarinet.
The sentence that has the correct subject-verb agreement is the second one:
Loud claps of thunder shake the house.
Since the subject <em>loud claps of thunder </em>is in the plural form, the verb <em>shake </em>also has to be in the plural form.
Answer:
The statement that best summarizes the central idea of this paragraph is 3. signs of simian fever and Ebola can be similar.
Explanation:
We can reach a conclusion through elimination. The first option is incorrect because the test does not claim the confirmation did not happen because the animal was dead. If the animal had had a bloody interior, Ebola would have been confirmed. So, dead specimens are not the reason why it is difficult to identify Ebola.
Number 2 is subjective, giving us an opinion that at no moment was suggested or stated in the paragraph. We cannot say the central idea of this text is that necropsies are boring.
Number 3 is the correct option. The reason why the woman was unable to confirm if the monkey had died of Ebola was because the signs she found could also be due to simian fever. Since they are similar, she could not confirm the disease visually.
Number 4 is incorrect. Ebola does not have unusual effects. Its effects are known and specific. Again, the reason behind the difficulty was the similarity of signs between the two diseases.
Answer: The correct way of rewriting the sentences provided is:
11. Julio parked and cleaned the car in the garage.
12. Mom returned Megan's movie, which she forgot at our house.
Explanation: The first sentence ("Julio parked the car in the garage and cleaned it") needs to be corrected because the pronoun<u> "it" has an ambiguous reference,</u> that is to say it could refer to "the car" or to "the garage". In that way, it is necessary to put the verb "cleaned" after the verb "parked" in order to convey information clearly, avoid using the pronoun "it" and clarify that the object of the verb "cleaned" is "the car". On the other hand, the sentence "Mom returned to movie from Megan that she forgot at our house" also needs to be corrected since <u>the genitive case should be used when trying to indicate possession instead of using the preposition "from"</u>. Moreover, in the sentence provided<u>, the antecedent of "that" should be "movie" and not "Megan"</u>. Therefore, the correct way of rewriting this sentence is "Mom returned Megan's movie, which she forgot at our house".
