<span>Sue admires her friend's excellent SINGING.
The gerund is used as a noun.</span>
In my opinion, the correct answer is <span>C. He is filled with joy. When he got the information that he would leave Colonel Lloyd's plantation, he lived through three most ecstatic days of his life. He was eagerly awaiting the moment of departure, wondering what would happen next. To say that he was just optimistic wouldn't be accurate enough.</span>
The correct answer for this question would be option A. Based on the given paragraph from a student’s literary essay comparing two different works, the paragraph would support the idea that Micaela <span> wishes her heritage was different because she has difficulty relating to her grandmother. Hope this answer helps.</span>
