Story : A Dog’s Tale by Mark Twain
4. Read this sentence from the selection.
“Whenever she heard a large word she said it over to herself many times, and so was able to keep it until there was a dogmatic gathering in the neighborhood.”
In this sentence the word dogmatic is used as —
• an insightful simile
• a descriptive metaphor
• a humorous play on words
• an illuminating allusion
5. In the last paragraph the narrator says his mother would “fetch out a long word.” The connotations of the word fetch remind the reader that the narrator’s mother —
• is well educated
• is a dog
• knows lots of big words
• likes to show off
8. What is ironic about the author’s mother showing off with her knowledge of the word unintellectual?
• Her child knew she didn’t understand the word correctly.
• The strangers all already knew the meaning of the word.
• As any intellectual would know, the word should be “nonintellectual.”
• She did not know any synonyms for the word.
9. Which type of person is most like the author’s mother?
• A high-performing student with an excellent memory for words
• A very verbal person who always has a quick answer that sounds good
• A dishonest person who tells lies on a regular basis
• A person who likes dogs a lot and works at a veterinary clinic
An introductory phrase or clause is a phrase or clause at the beginning that provides background information. Thus the correct answer is B.
<h3>What is a Clause?</h3>
The smallest grammatical element is a clause. A verb must be present in a clause. A clause usually consists of a subject, a verb phrase, and a predicate. The introductory clause in a sentence will be found at the beginning.
The objective of an introductory clause or phrase is to justify or explain the main sentence. Introduction clauses are dependent clauses that give information about the background.
Therefore, option B is appropriate.
