In the poem "On Turning Ten", the year-old speaker, sheds his thoughts on the realization that he is no longer a youngling. This particular poem is very melancholic which is a contrast to the usual humor of Billy Collin's poetry.

<h3>Summary of the Poem "On Turning Ten"</h3>

Billy Collin in this poem digs deep into the childhood memories of a 10-year-old, who remember the bliss and magic of childhood and contrasts that with the paid of life that he is now becoming aware of.

Although the adult to whom he speaks reassures him that he still has a lot of years to enjoy his childhood, the melancholic speaker indicates that it is impossible because he now sees the world from a different perspective.

Why is it more important to pursue what makes you happy and passionate rather than a higher paycheck or better social status?
tatiyna

Answer:

In my experience you have two choices. You can either work during the week doing something you are not passionate about but make more money and do whatever you want on the weekends, or you can work for what you are passionate about 24/7  but make less money.

Personally I will pursue the second option because I feel that life is too short for me to live out my days in a box office.

Choose the sentence that has a subject complement. A) The day ended with many surprises. B) We can't leave without seeing her. C
Fantom [35]

The sentence that has a subject complement is "I felt much better," where the complement "much better" follows the linking verb "felt," as seen below.

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

We can define subject complement as a predicative expression that follows a linking verb. Examples of linking verbs are:

  • To be
  • To become
  • To feel
  • To look

The purpose of a predicate subject is to provide more information about the subject. Examples of subject complements are the underlined below:

  • Anna is <u>a doctor</u>.
  • She looks<u> good</u>.
  • I feel <u>weird</u>.

That is what we have in option D, "I felt much better." Here, the verb "felt" is a linking verb. "Much better" is the subject complement providing further information about the subject "I".

With the information above in mind, we can conclude that option D is the correct answer.
