The simple subjects in each sentence are the following:

11. Often, a mask (was, were) made for ritual dances.

12. Natural forces (has, have) been the subjects of art from early times on.

13. Also, pictures (has, have) often represented religious beliefs.

14. Art (does, do) represent various aspects of the daily life and customs of a society.

Now, let's underline the correct verb form and label which type of verb they are:

11. Often, a mask (was, were) made for ritual dance. - AUX

12. Natural forces (has, have) been the subjects of art from early times on. - AUX

13. Also, pictures (has, have) often represented religious beliefs. - AUX

14. Art (does, do) represent various aspects of the daily life and customs of a society. - AUX

We can define a simple subject as the main word in the subject, the one that establishes a relationship with the verb. Let's use the subject from sentence 11 as an example: the complete subject is "a mask", but the most important word out of those is "mask". This is the word we are talking about, the one that is the topic of the sentence.

As seen in the answer above, all the underlined verbs were auxiliary verbs. Auxiliary verbs accompany the main verbs. While the main verbs express action, the auxiliary verbs help convey tense, emphasis, possibility, questions, etc. Notice that we choose the verb to agree with the subject: singular-singular ("mask was"), plural-plural ("pictures have").

This question, in conclusion, concerned the relationship between a subject and a verb.

Write your theme-based summary of "Keep Watch" by Alex Myers

castortr0y [4]

Based on the summary of "Keep Watch" by Alex Myers I can deduce that the literary theme is

Coming of Age

In this story by Alex Myers, we learn of a mother who always went against the guidelines of the city she was living in by burning leaves without a permit. The first son of the woman at a point could no longer stand the embarrassment of his mother being questioned on whether she obtained a permit before burning. Believing that he was now of age and could question his mother, he went to the fire tower where it was believed that a lone watcher observed the city for signs of smoke.

To his greatest disappointment, he saw no one there. This means that his mother was right when she said that no one was really observing for smoke, rather, the neighbors were telling on them. This proves the insight of elderly people who most times know more than younger people.

Q.1) Read this short passage and answer the question below:

aliya0001 [1]

Answer:

D) is too shy to try and talk to the prince .

B) “Here she would sit and watch the young prince, who thought himself quite alone In the bright moonlight.”

Explanation:

The fairytale of "The Little Mermaid" by Hans Christian Anderson is a famous children's tale that everyone is familiar with. It tells the story of a young mermaid Ariel, who fell in love with a human prince and ends up taking a 'gift' from the evil witch Ursula to try to get Prince Eric to fall in love with her.

As seen in the given passage from the story, we see Princess Ariel and her sisters swimming along the shores to get a glimpse of the Prince's palace. Ariel would "peep out from among the green rushes" just to "sit and watch the young prince [. . .] in the bright moonlight". This shows she has been greatly affected by the Prince but is too shy to talk to the him.

Thus, the correct answers are options D(first question) and option B (second question).
