Identify the sentence that correctly distinguishes between plural nouns and possessive nouns. A. All of our school's cafeteria

erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

C. All of our school's cafeterias were closed during spring break.

Explanation:

Plural nouns are those nouns that are more than one. They are either identified by the addition of (s) in the noun or in some cases (ives).

Possessive nouns are those nouns which show the possessive nature of the noun. It is an indication of the possession of the thing by the noun. It is indicated by the addition of ('s) in the noun.

So, from the sentence given in the options, the cafeteria is the property of the school so it will be indicated as "the school's cafeteria". Also, the cafeterias talked about is more than one so it will be indicated in the plural sense, thus adding (s) in the noun.

Thus, the final sentence will be

All of our school's cafeterias were closed during the spring break.

* School's is the possessive noun while cafeterias is the plural noun.

Which of the following words uses the Latin suffix -able in the same way as uncomfortable from paragraph 27 of Kindertransport?

enot [183]

D. uncharitable.

The suffix -able, borrowed from Old French and originally from the Latin -ābilis (meaning "worthy of being acted upon"), can have different meanings.

The most common one is "fit/liable to be (done)," as in:

likeable - fit to be liked
washable - fit to be washed
degradable - liable to be degraded.

This, however, does not apply to comfortable. Another meaning of -able, however, is "giving, or inclined to," as in:

comfortable - giving comfort
(un)charitable - (not) inclined to charity.

True or False

1. Jonathan Edwards never raised his voice as he delivered his sermon. FALSE

2. Listeners held on to the church pew during the sermon for fear that they were going to slip into hell. TRUE

3. This was a "fire and brimstone" sermon - delivered at a loud volume and intensity level. TRUE

Jonathan Edwards delivered this speech during the Puritan Era. The sermon was strong, scary and confrontational. The sermon highlighted the power of God and the punishment that we, humans, deserve for our iniquities and sins. The sermon is scary and long. Puritans had God and the Bible at the center of their lives. Edwards was passionate about the topic, and the sermon is written using a strong and scary tone.

Which three groups of sentences best use a variety of sentence patterns to convey meaning and the relationship between ideas? Th

Schach [20]

Answer:

The three groups of sentences that best use a variety of sentence patterns to convey meaning and the relationship between ideas are:

1. The delicious smell of cinnamon wafted from the kitchen. When I entered, I discovered my friend was making snickerdoodles.

3. In the kitchen, my friend was baking snickerdoodles. Their mouth-watering aroma drew me toward the oven.

4. Attracted by a delicious smell, I approached the kitchen. My friend was baking snickerdoodles.

Explanation:

It is actually easier to start our analysis by the one group we eliminated:

2. My friend was making cookies. My friend was in the kitchen. The cookies smelled delicious.

Notice that in group 2, all we have are three independent clauses separated by a period. There is no complexity here - all we have are simple sentences. Besides that, there is also no complexity in the vocabulary being used. Only simple, common words are employed. Let's say this type of writing sounds a bit weak, even childish.

On the other hand, when we take a look at the other three groups, we notice the author was able to combine the sentences effectively with the help of pronouns, conjunctions, and modifiers. Not only that, but the author also uses more complex words - for example: "mouth-watering" instead of "delicious".
