After the horrific plague that stormed through Europe people wanted to celebrate life. The growth of trade exposed more people to new goods and ideas and new attitudes spread across Europe that helped to create new ways of thinking. People in Medieval times believed that you were here to suffer and avoid life's pleasures in order to please God.

Humanists believed that God wanted us to enjoy life. Humanism stressed the importance of the individual power. The goal was to create well rounded individuals and encourage people to strive for greater things while still being good Christians.

The printing press helped to spread new ideas, discoveries, and knowledge. People were able to share their ideas by publishing them in books which made them cheaper. More people were getting literate which marked the end of a dark middle ages.

How would I separate the subject from the predicate from each other in this sentence

icang [17]

Answer:

Canning or freezing keeps food from spoiling.

Explanation:

I've underlined the subject and written the predicate in bold letters.

The subject is the part of the sentence that tells us who or what is performing an action expressed by the verb. It can also tell us who or what is being described by the predicate.

The predicate tells us what the subject is doing or describes the subject.

Here, the subject are the words canning and freezing. This is a compound subject - a subject that consists of two or more simple subjects that share a verb or verb phrase. The verb these words share is keeps. This verb is a part of the complete predicate: keeps food from spoiling.

To confirm this, we can ask:

for the subject - What keeps food from spoiling? Canning or freezing.
for the predicate - What does canning or freezing do? It keeps food from spoiling.

Irina-Kira [14]

The analogy is meant to show parallels between two sets of words. Fertile is to arable as vague is to clouded. If you understand either pair it can be used to decipher the meaning of the other pair you don't know.
