Question 2
Answer: Across the bay, fleets of old fishing boats was seen on the horizon.
Explanation: The subject <em>fleets</em> (plural noun) <em>of old fishing boats </em>mismatches the verb <em>was seen </em>(only for I/he/she/it)
Question 5
Answer: John cried.
Explanation: This sentence is the only one with a subject and a predicate. "Because he wasn't hungry" is a reason clause that must depend on another sentence. "Rebekah drove a race car she won three races" is not a valid sentence unless you place a semicolon after the word "car" to separate the two predicates in it (or a period to make two separate sentences).
Question 10
Answer: I studied
Explanation: The subject "I" is not properly divided from the verb (studied), complement (for the test) and the independent clause joined by the word "but" (but I still didn't pass it).

B) escape from their enemies by jumping away
Escape is spelled correctly in the excerpt. Escape does not have an x. This means option A is wrong and B is correct. C is also wrong because of the spelling of escape and also because it uses the wrong there. In the sentence, their is a possessive adjective. It shows that enemies "belong" to the monkeys since they are the enemies of the monkeys. There means a place, as in over there. They're is a contraction meaning they are. Option D is wrong because of the spelling of escape and the apostrophe in enemie's. An apostrophe is used for contractions or to show ownership. The enemies do not own anything and it is not part of a contraction.
