Here’s a typical conversation structure.
A: Say “Hi!”, “Hello!” and follow with a phrase like “How are you?” or “How are things?”
B: Answer with a phrase like “Fine” and ask A a similar question.
A: Reply
Here’s an example:
A: Hi Suzie. How are you?
B: Fine thanks. And you?
A. Yeah, fine thanks.
“Fine”, “Fine thanks”, “OK”, “OK thanks” all mean the same.
“I’m very well, thanks” is more formal.
“Not bad thanks”, “Can’t complain” are less positive.
In formal situations, you can also say “Good morning”, “Good afternoon” and “Good evening”.
“Good morning” = for the morning up to lunch.
“Good afternoon” = for the afternoon until early evening (i.e. around 6pm)
“Good evening” = for the rest of the evening
“Good night” = when you leave a person at the end of the evening, or when you go to bed.
the answer is C Brushstrokes
Choice A: We conducted a survey of those in the immediate area and asked which type of notary stamp each liked best.
Essentially, the only thing that differentiates Choice A from the rest, is it's pronoun used.
In the original, the pronoun phrase used in relation to the adjective "those," was "he or she."
From this we can infer that Choice B is out of the question since it only states "she."
Choice C, though a tempting choice, is incorrect since the word "they" isn't inclusive enough.
Choice D is erroneous because it does not provide more clarity than the original. In fact, it doesn't even seem like a revision since the two pronouns were joined by a forward slash.
I will underline the <u>predicate nouns or pronouns</u> and mark in bolds the predicate adjectives. Remember: <em>predicate pronouns</em> are pronouns that are present in the predicate; <em>predicate nouns</em> follow the verb (and are nouns or noun phrases that renames or offers more information about the subject); <em>predicate adjectives follow a verb</em> and modify the subject of the sentence.
1. Itzhak Perlman <u>is a distinguished violinist.</u> (the noun phrase "a distinguised violinist" gives us more information about the subject "I. Perlman")
2. <u>Born in 1945</u>, Perlman <u>contracted polio at the age of four</u>. (Mr. Perlman was born in 1945 and he also contracted polio)
3. Perlman is also an award-winning teacher and conductor. (this is a compound predicate adjective: he is both a teacher and a conductor)
4. His playing style is enthusiastic, expressive, and flawless. (this predicate adjective describes Mr. Perlman's playing style)
5. When my friends and I listen to him play, we are amazed at his talent. (I think this is the sentence without subject complements)
1: a state formally cooperating with another for a military or other purpose.
2: combine or unite a resource or commodity with (another) for mutual benefit.
