Select the sentence in the present tense.

English

harkovskaia [24]3 years ago

Answer:

Well, I can't quite determine if you mean for this to be a trick question or if you are serious.

I say that because technically speaking, A and C show future tense, while B and D show past tense.

Of all the options, A is the best one to represent the present tense. While it certainly <u><em>can</em></u> represent the present tense, it does a much better job at representing the future tense. Yes, really. Let me give you some other examples so you'll see what I mean.....

Explanation:

Today, I'm leaving for Paris on the 4:00 p.m. flight.   =    future tense

Today, the army is sending me to boot camp.    =   future tense

.......................

I should add....

If you were to say:  "Today, I'm babysitting my nephew."  --- <u><em>and you said it at the moment that you are in the house next to your nephew</em></u> -- then, THAT would be present tense.

In this example, we're talking about an action that is happening at the moment of speaking unlike option A above which refers to an action that hasn't happened yet.

Have you got it??

laiz [17]

Answer:

The answer would be C) swimmed.

Explanation:

If you put each answer into the sentence, you can see if it does or doesn't make sense. Ex:

Lets try A first:

At the motel, we used the exercise room and <u>swammed </u>in  the outdoor pool.

Although saying "swammed" might be fun, this does not make sense, therefore the answer cannot be A.

Lets try B next!

At the motel, we used the exercise room and <u>swum </u>in  the outdoor pool.

Again, this might be fun to say and all, but this does not make sense, so we should try C next.

At the motel, we used the exercise room and <u>swimmed </u>in  the outdoor pool.

This one makes sense and works! We should still try the last answer, D, though (you never know!)

At the motel, we used the exercise room and <u>swam </u>in  the outdoor pool.

At first glance, this may seem correct, but if you say this out loud, it doesn't make sense. The answer must be C) swimmed.

Hope this helped! :)

ch4aika [34]

Answer:

C. Purchasing Agent

Explanation:

Bachelors degree refers to an academic degree (certificate) awarded to a student by a tertiary institution (university or college) after the completion of his or her educational programme.

Also, a certification can be defined as a recognition given for completing a course of study or passing an examination. This is to certify that the individual is a professional in that course of study. Some examples are CCNA, Comptia A+, HSE I and II, COREN, CCIE etc.

In this scenario, Teegan is in college and trying to decide her major for a bachelor’s degree. She wants to work in Manufacturing. Thus, the job that requires a bachelor’s degree is the purchasing agent.

A purchasing agent refers to an individual who is a graduate and is saddled with the responsibility of buying the equipment, tools, materials and other supplies that are used for the smooth running and operation of a company, most especially a manufacturing company.
