Answer:
verb
Explanation:
The predicate is essentially the verb and all that follows it. EVERY predicate contains a verb, and it conveys information about the subject.
The boy + <em><u> kicked</u></em> the ball.
B.On the hike, Mr. Clark tripped over a tree root, fell to the ground, and broke his wrist.
Parallel structure is using the same grammatical structure for a list of items or ideas. In option B, all of the actions in the list are written in simple past tense. They do not include a helping verb or other form. The verbs are all the same structure: tripped, fell, broke.
Option A is not correct. To make it correct parallel structure, "being responsible" should be "responsibility". To correct the parallel structure for Option C, "babysitting" should be "to babysit". To fix option D, add "having" before fierce determination.
The correct answer is A. It is his turn to learn the family game, like his father and grandfather did years before him.
Explanation
The previous text talks about dominoes, a traditional game for Javier's family. In the text, his grandfather invites him to learn how to play dominoes and play with him and his father. In the beginning, Javier is not entirely convinced, but later he understands that this tradition is very important for his family, and he realizes that the empty chair was the space that had always been for a new member of the family to learn to play as his father and grandfather. As the author expresses saying "The empty chair beside mi father convinced me to take part". According to the above, the correct answer is A. It is his turn to learn the family game, like his father and grandfather did years before him.
