Excerpt from New Nevada Palominos Enlisting in the U.S. Marines US Dept. Of the Interior--Carson City Field Office Marine Corps

S_A_V [24]

The correct answer is: Option A. Adopt the horses.

Given the context in the excerpt stating the individuals that would be "taking possession of the new horses" are official U.S. Marines, it can be inferred that this practice will take place within legal bounds, and therefore "stealing the horses" is out of context in this case. The intent of this activity is to use the horses as part of the Marines' activities, and as such, it is clear the Marines are planning to "adopt" the horses, not "borrow" them.

<h3>What is a simple subject?</h3>

A sentence's simple subject is one in which only one noun serves as the main verb. An object, place, thing, or idea that is a noun is a subject.

A subject and a verb must be present in every sentence (or predicate). The sentence's focus is identified by the subject, which identifies it.

An object, location, or person doing an action is referred to as a simple subject. A complete subject includes all of the subject's modifiers and adjectives, whereas a simple subject is a single word that describes the topic without any of them.

Examples of Simple Subjects:

Thomas Edison created the lightbulb. The verb "invented" is being "done" in this sentence by "Thomas Edison."

what is the indirect speech of "my lord, is any of your silver missing? " the sergeant said to the bishop.

Darya [45]

Answer:

The sergeant asked the Bishop if any of his silver was missing.

Explanation:

Indirect speech is a way of relaying information without directly quoting the speaker. Usually it is done as a reported speech.

Therefore, the direct speech "my lord, is any of your silver missing? " the sergeant said to the Bishop becomes "The sergeant asked the Bishop if any of his silver was missing."
