The colors in her art project included splotches of brown, patches where it was yellow, and green streaks everywhere. This is a parallel.

Our favorite pastimes are spending time at the library, to ride around through the countryside, and huge banana splits to share.  This is not parallel

That tribe of Native Americans was famous for weaving rugs, shaping pottery, and designing turquoise jewelry. This is parallel

Which sentence contains a linking verb?
Lady_Fox [76]

Hello :)

A linking verb is a verb that describes a subject, a linking verb connects a noun and a predicate.These verbs always link subjects to something that further describes the subject of the sentence.

A does not contain a linking verb, but it does contain a helping verb; "has". B does not contain a linking verb, but it does also contain a helping verb; "are" C doesn't contain a linking verb, but some might get this mixed up because is has the word have which is a linking verb, but in front of that word it says "could" indicating that it didn't happen. D does contain a linking verb "have been" this indicates that they've been feeling this way. <em>The hockey players</em> is the noun and<em> </em><em>anxious about the match is the </em>predicate.

So i'm inferring that the answer is D

2.2) Put the verbs into the past simple or past continuous.
Ludmilka [50]

We can complete the sentences considering that the past continuous indicates the action that was taking place when another action happened (simple past).

  • Were... driving? / stopped
  • was snowing / left
  • didn't see / was working
  • called / was talking
  • were studying / met
  • Were... living / had

<h3>What is the simple past tense?</h3>

The simple past tense is the form of the verb we use to indicate that an action took place in the past. We use the simple past tense when the action has already finished.

Examples:

  • Affirmative: I saw you at the party last night.
  • Negative: I didn't see you at the party last night.
  • Interrogative: Did you see me at the party last night?

<h3>What is the past continuous tense?</h3>

The past continuous tense is used to indicate that an action had a longer duration in the past, that is, that it started in the past, lasted for a while, and then ended.

Examples:

  • Affirmative: She was watching her favorite cartoon.
  • Negative: She wasn't watching her favorite cartoon.
  • Interrogative: Was she watching her favorite cartoon.

The two tenses can be used in the same sentence to indicate that one action - simple past - interrupted another action - past continuous - or happened while the other action was taking place.

Example:

  • I was cooking when someone rang the doorbell.
