How to write a closing paragraph?
trapecia [35]
I'm not good with this stuff, but I'd try summarizing the paper for your closing paragraph. End with a sentence like, "That's why I love summer vacation" if it's about why you like summer vacation. I hope that makes sense!

Which sentence uses a verb that agrees with its compound subject? A. Either calculators or an adding machine make an accountant'
Sladkaya [172]
I believe B would be the answer, as the subject closest to the verb (rolls) corresponds to the verb (when there is an "or" or "nor" in a sentence, the verb should correspond to the subject closest to it). For A, "adding machine" should correspond to "make," but it doesn't. For C, the subject is plural (team members and the coach), but the verb is singular; the case is the same for D.
