Which phrase gives the most helpful clue to the meaning of compensate?

Ran at a fast pace
Trail was flat
When it started
Going much slower

Answers

Answer:

D. Going much slower

Explanation:

I know that compensate means to counteract something. "Going much slower" is the best answer to figure out what compensate is because it starts off saying that they ran fast but now they're going a lot slower. This tells you that they had to change their speed by going much slower.

Answers

Queen Elizabeth relies on logos by providing reasons why Parliament should not worry about the fact that she is unmarried and childless. (option C)

What is logos?

Logos is a persuasive technique in which the speaker appeals to logic and reasoning in order to convince the audience of something. This is the technique employed by Queen Elizabeth in the excerpt we are analyzing here.

The reasoning behind her words is that her not being married and not having children does not mean England's throne will be left without an heir. Besides that, she also argues that, if she did have a child, he or she might very well grow up to be someone unworthy of the throne.

With the information above in mind, we can select option C as the correct answer.

Identify the non-finite verb forms in this sentence: 1. She was looking for her sister.

Answers

Answer:

Looking (#1)

Explanation:

Non-finite Verb

Non-finite verbs function as nouns, adjectives, or adverbs or combine with a finite verb for verb tense. Non-finite verbs Include participles, Infinitives, gerunds, other verbs that don't change form when the subject changes.

Participle

A verbal that is used as an adjective, describes a noun or pronoun, present participles always end in -ing, past participles usually end in -ed.

Gerund

verb form acting as a noun - always ends in -ing.

Infinitive

a verb form that is used as a noun, an adjective, or an adverb and is typically preceded by the word to.

Continuation:

Word: She (Pronoun)

She is a pronoun. It's a noun that refers to another noun or noun phrase anaphorically, although it can't be preceded by a determiner and seldom accepts an attributive adjective. In English, examples are I, you, he, who, me, mine, and so on. It can also be used as a subjective or nominative pronoun. It is most commonly used to begin a statement. It is, however, rarely used as a noun.

Word: Was (Linking Verb)

The word "was" is a verb, more precisely a linking verb, since it connects the subject to the section of the sentence that offers further information about the topic. Furthermore, this form of the verb "to be" represents a state of being.

Word: Looking (Present Participle)

Looking is the present participle of look. A participle is a verb that ends in -ing (present) or -ed, -en, -d, -t, -n, or -ne (past) and serves as an adjective, modifying a noun or pronoun. A participial phrase is made up of a participle and one or more modifiers, objects, and/or complements (s).

Word: For (Preposition)

When used to signify the usage of something, the place where an object or person is going, or the period of time, the word "for" is defined as a preposition.

Word: Her (Pronoun)

Her is a pronoun in the third person singular. Her is the subject or object of a verb or a preposition. Her is a possessive determiner as well. You refer to a lady, a girl, or a feminine animal with her.

Word: Sister (Noun)

This word is referring to someone's/something's female sibling. This word is a noun because a word that is a person, place, or thing is classified as this part of speech. The noun sister can be used as either a proper or common noun. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------After looking through this sentence, we can come to one conclusion. Since looking ends in -ing, it is classified as a gerund. Therefore, the word looking is a non-finite verb.---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

All the other words in the sentence are not considered or classified as non-finite verb as their word classifications do not match those of the description/definition given of what a non-finite verb is.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Answer:

She was looking for her sister.

NOTE:  Verbs with tense are finite, and verbs without tense are nonfinite.

Which verb correctly completes this sentence?

The crowd ____
clapping and cheering.

A. were
B. is
C. are
D. am
E. have been

Answers

Answer: were

Explanation:

The verb which correctly completes the sentence is were.

A verb is one of the parts of speech in English language. Verbs can be defined as any word that describes an action, occurrence, or state of existence. Some examples of verb are dance, sing, walk, play, run, sit,  clap, cheer, etc.

In English language, a subject can be defined as the person, thing, idea or place that performs an action.

On a related note, a subject-verb agreement is a situation in which there exist an agreement between a subject and a verb in terms of number.

This ultimately implies that, if a subject is singular, its verb should also be singular while if the subject is plural, the verb must be plural.

In this context, the most appropriate verb to use in completing the sentence is "were" because a subject (crowd) is plural.

Note: If the subject is singular, you would use is.

In conclusion, the complete sentence would be written as; "The crowd were  clapping and cheering."
