Answer: Students prefer salty snacks over sweet because the percentage of sweet snacks were lower than the percentage of salty snacks
Answer:
D. Jake tore up the main character's socks.
Explanation:
Well, all of the other answers do not make sense.
B does not make sense beacause Jake probably also eats other things and nothing in the passage says he only eats socks.
C does not make sense because nothing in the passage says Jake is the main chaecters brother.
A and D were probably the answers you were confused with.
A would kinda make sense but it is quite obvious that in the passage they do not focus on the fact that Jake brought the socks to the kitchen at all.
They focus on the fact Jake broke the sock.
So D would be a reasonable explanation and is basically the only one that makes sense.
That is my answer!
I had to look for the passage and here is my answer:
Based on the passage attached to this in which the one who narrates in it is Gulliver, the event that is being described in this passage is Gulliver's plan to escape from Lilliput. Lilliput is one of the fictional places in "The Gulliver's Travel" that was written by Jonathan Swift. The answer for this would be the first option.
Billy Jo thinks that the sky is blue because the sun paints it each morning.
<em>Billy Jo thinks that the sky is blue</em>. This is the independent clause. It has meaning by itself.
..<em>because the sun paints it each morning</em>. This is the dependent clause. It does not have meaning by itself. It needs the independent clause. It gives extra information -reason- related to the information in the independent clause.
