Which bolded word or phrase is a gerund?

English
1 answer:
Paha777 [63]3 years ago
5 0

Okay so gerunds are a form that is derived from a verb but that functions as a noun, in English ending in -ing, example would be like asking in 'do you mind my asking you?'

So the first one would be 'giggling', then the second one would be 'fixing.'

the next two would be a bit harder because there are no words that have a prefix of -ing, but im not to sure about them because i dont think they have a gerund in them...

but the next ones are, 'laughing' and 'squinting'

sorry i couldnt help with all of them.

Your class has been talking about helping the poor in your community. most of the students opine, 'why not just hand out money?'
pogonyaev

Answer:

There are many ways to help the poor within the community other than just handing out money. Volunteering is an excellent way of helping the needy in our community, and there are also many places to volunteer that helps the poor in our community.

It takes a giving person to volunteer their time and ability to help someone who may require help. Not only does volunteering help the poor in our community, but it helps out places that give food and essentials to the community because volunteers run many. When you volunteer, you provide someone with extra hands to hand out and make bags or packages to hand to more poor individuals in our community.

The effects of volunteering can range from many helpful characteristics, such as helping those in need, giving back to the community, working for worthwhile causes, and overall helping someone with their health, mentally and physically. Volunteering can affect many people in different ways, but what most do not know is that it can help many of the poor individuals in our community get the help and essentials they need to survive.

Whether volunteering or donating money is a selfless act, giving back to your community can improve others' lives, plus build your self-esteem and self-worth. Any act of good deeds can benefit the needy within your community and will help achieve a greater sense of satisfaction and growth as it feels good to help others and provide them with all the essential resources.
