Which sentence contains a subject and a verb that agree in number?

1 answer:

5 0

The answer is C). The group of clueless tourists needs to purchase a map.

The subject here is "group", a singular noun, thus our verb also needs to be singular (i.e. "needs"). To check if we have subject-verb agreement, remove the "of clueless tourists" phrase and see if it the sentence would make sense.

"The group needs to purchase a map."

Hope this helps.

Write an essay that analyzes the use of poetry in Through the Looking-Glass

GuDViN [60]

Answer:

The nonsensical poetry of Through the Looking-Glass highlights how difficult it is for the characters to communicate with each other.It is especially significant that nursery rhymes come true after Alice recites them.I think that Alice needs to stop arguing with the characters she meets in the Looking-Glass land and just accept the rules.The strange characters of the Looking-Glass World emphasize its peculiarity.Because Alice is an outsider, she has many difficulties navigating through and understanding the rules of the Looking-Glass land.Alice matures on her journey through the Looking-Glass land; for example, she learns to control her emotions.

Which best states how the author develops the character in this excerpt?

vova2212 [387]

I have found this question online, and it is about the short story "The Notorious Jumping Frog of Calaveras County," by Mark Twain. The excerpt is long for me to post here, but it begins with the story told by Simon Wheeler, one of the characters.

Answer:

The option that best states how the author develops the character in this excerpt is:

A. with the use of dialect.

Explanation:

When it comes to literature, dialect is related to how the author portrays the characters' speech. Many authors choose to write words with an uncommon spelling just to show that that is the way the character pronounces them. For instance, in books by Zora Neale Hurston, what should be "I" was spelled as "Ah" to emphasize pronunciation.

The same happens in this short story by Mark Twain. The excerpt we are analyzing here uses dialect to reveal more about the character. For example, Wheeler says "feller" instead of "fellow". Twain wants readers to know that Wheeler is a simple man, in contrast with the narrator of the story who is an educated man and who uses a very different (formal) dialect from Wheeler.
