Answer 2

Tonight severe rains is predicted to raise the level of the Springfield River to nearly seventeen feet. Since sixteen feet is considered flood stage, residents should prepare their homes for minor to moderate flooding.

What is subject-verb agreement?

Subject-verb agreement is the grammatical rule that states that the verb or verbs in a sentence must match the subject's number, person, and gender; in English, the verb must match only the number and sometimes the person.

Identify the subject and verb (the action word) in a sentence first. If the subject is singular, so should the verb describing its action. If the subject is plural, so should the verb.

The given paragraph can be rewritten as "Tonight severe rains is predicted to raise the level of the Springfield River to nearly seventeen feet. Since sixteen feet is considered flood stage, residents should prepare their homes for minor to moderate flooding."

Thus, this is the correct subject-verb agreement.

PLEASE HELP!!

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

Let's focus on each part at a time.

Phrase or Clause? the best choice for the words in BOLD.

1.) GRABBING A SANDWHICH, Rene hurried off to join his friends.

2.) Ms. Smith’s only comment ON MY PAPER was that my handwriting was difficult to read.

--> A clause is a group of words that contains a subject and a predicate. A clause MUST contain a verb. A phrase is a group of words that stand together and express a concept. A phrase is often a part of a sentence or a clause. With that in mind, we can answer:

1.) GRABBING A SANDWHICH, Rene hurried off to join his friends.  --> clause

2.) Ms. Smith’s only comment ON MY PAPER was that my handwriting was difficult to read. --> phrase

Independent Clause, Dependent Clause, or Phrase?

3.) Even though John likes ham, HE HATES MARMALADE

4.) EVEN THOUGH JOHN LIKES HAM, he hates marmalade

5.) THE WAX IS MELTING because it is too hot

6.) The wax is melting BECAUSE IT IS TOO HOT

7.) I WANTED TO GO TO THE ZOO, so we packed up and left

8.)I wanted to go to the zoo, SO WE PACKED UP AND LEFT

--> An independent clause is able to express a full idea on its own. On the other hand, a dependent clause needs the main clause to make sense. Dependent clauses begin with subordinate conjunctions. Check the definition for phrase above.

3.) Even though John likes ham, HE HATES MARMALADE  --> independent clause

4.) EVEN THOUGH JOHN LIKES HAM, he hates marmalade  --> dependent clause

5.) THE WAX IS MELTING because it is too hot  --> independent clause

6.) The wax is melting BECAUSE IT IS TOO HOT  --> dependent clause

7.) I WANTED TO GO TO THE ZOO, so we packed up and left  --> independent clause

8.)I wanted to go to the zoo, SO WE PACKED UP AND LEFT --> independent clause ("so" is a coordinating conjunction)

Coordinating Conjunction or Subordinating Conjunction?

9.) EVEN THOUGH John likes jam, he hates marmalade

10.) The wax is melting BECAUSE it is too hot

11.) I wanted to go to the zoo, SO we packed up and left

12.) Tomorrow is his birthday, BUT i forgot to get a gift

--> There is an easy acronym to help memorize the coordinating conjunctions: FANBOYS (for, and, not, but, or, yet, so). By elimination, we can easily recognize the ones that are subordinating conjunctions:

9.) EVEN THOUGH John likes jam, he hates marmalade  --> subordinating

10.) The wax is melting BECAUSE it is too hot  --> subordinating

11.) I wanted to go to the zoo, SO we packed up and left  --> coordinating

12.) Tomorrow is his birthday, BUT i forgot to get a gift --> coordinating

What Conjunction is in the sentence below?

WHEN the moon shore, HE lurked in

13.) WHEN or HE?

--> "He" is a subject pronoun, not a conjunction. Therefore, the only possibility for a correct answer is the other option, "when".

Explanation:

Fortunato is dressed as a fool. He is also very concerned about the Amontillado and
doesn't want Montresor to call upon Luchresi's expertise. What is the significance of
these details?

Answers

Answer:

Montresor is trying to tell the readers that Fortunato is weak and has too much pride to ask questions. He is trying to make a fool out of him.

Explanation:

The sentence shows that Fortunato was so foolish to outsmart Luchresi that he didn't suspect why Montressor was taking him to the catacombs.

Although you have not shown the text this question refers to, we can see from the context of the question that you are referring to "The Cask of Amontillado," written by Edgar Alan Poe.

As we read this short story, we can get the following information:

Montressor holds a strong grudge about something Fortunato did to him.Because of this grudge, he decides to get revenge on Fortunato, trapping him inside the wall of a catacomb and leaving him there to die.He makes a plan to take Fortunato to the catacombs, and that plan consists of calling him to assess the quality of the amontillado.Fortunado doesn't know how to assess the amontillado, but he thinks about doing it to make Luchresi, his rival, envious.Fortunato wants so much to make Luchresi jealous that he doesn't suspect why he's being taken to the catacombs. This makes Montressor think Fortunato is a fool.

With that, we can see that Poe created characters with feelings so intense that it makes them not notice obvious things. These negative feelings make Montressor not see a peaceful way to solve his problems with Fortunato and does not allow Fortunato to realize that he is in a dangerous environment.

Answer:

The repetition of the word "feel" is intended to create a pace of suspense and horror, as well as to make the reader feel the emotions the narrator and the old man feel. Thus, repetition represents the beating of the two men's hearts.

The recurrence of the word "stealthily" also suggesst how vile and deceitful the narrator is. In fact, he is entering the old man's house to kill him.

Zeus was also known as the father of the gods on Mount Olympus and men.

Explanation:

Answer:

In Greek mythology, Medusa (/mɪˈdjuːzə, -sə/; Μέδουσα "guardian, protectress")[1] also called Gorgo, was one of the three monstrous Gorgons, generally described as winged human females with living venomous snakes in place of hair. It is in the Roman poet Ovid’s Metamorphoses that her story is most deeply elaborated. She was lovely, according to the poem—until she and Poseidon had sex in Athena’s temple.[2] Athena then punished her for this violation, by turning her into the monstrous, stony-glanced creature that we know. Thus those who gazed into her eyes would turn to stone. Most sources describe her as the daughter of Phorcys and Ceto,[3] although the author Hyginus makes her the daughter of Gorgon and Ceto.[4]

Medusa was beheaded by the Greek hero Perseus, who thereafter used her head, which retained its ability to turn onlookers to stone, as a weapon[5] until he gave it to the goddess Athena to place on her shield. In classical antiquity the image of the head of Medusa appeared in the evil-averting device known as the Gorgoneion.

According to Hesiod and Aeschylus, she lived and died on an island named Sarpedon, somewhere near Cisthene. The 2nd-century BC novelist Dionysios Skytobrachion puts her somewhere in Libya, where Herodotus had said the Berbers originated her myth, as part of their religion. She remained a priestess to Athena after her death and was risen with fresh hair.
