Which subject-verb agreement rule applies to this sentence? use a singular verb with a singular subject use a plural verb with a plural subject use a plural verb with a collective subject functioning as individual parts use a singular verb with a collective subject functioning as a unit

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: The correct subject-verb agreement rule applied to the sentence would be to use a plural verb with a collective subject functioning as individual parts.

In the sentence, we can see that the "dance crew" is a collective unit, HOWEVER, since the sentence is talking about "washing paint from their faces", then we need to treat the crew individually (the crew do not have one joint face). This leads us to using a plural verb.

A group of related words that has both a subject and a predicate is called a(n):A. adverb.
B. clause.
C. phrase.
D. complex sentence.

Answers

The correct answer is B. Clause.

Phrases don't have predicates so it's not a phrase and complexity is out of the question when talking about a simple, single clause. Adverbs are single words but adverbial clauses or adverbial phrases exist as well.

Which word in the sentence is a predicate nominative? George Washington was the first president of the United States.a. president
b. was
c. first
d. Washington

Answers

The correct answer is: A: president. Predicate nominative (also called predicate noun) is a word in sentence which completes a linking verb and renames the subject. The examples of linking verbs are: is, are, was, am, were, be, being (the helping verb); look, smell, taste, touch, sound (the sense verbs); and there are also verbs like: seem, appear, become, stay, turn, etc. The verb with the predicate nominative can always be replaced with "equals". Example: Mr. Robinson is professor. Professor is predicate nominative, and the sentence would mean the same, if it was written like this: Mr. Robinson equals professor.

Which narrative point of view is used in this excerpt from “The Lily’s Quest” by Nathaniel Hawthorne?So one breezy and cloudless afternoon Adam Forrester and Lilias Fay set out upon a ramble over the wide estate which they were to possess together, seeking a proper site for their temple of happiness. They were themselves a fair and happy spectacle, fit priest and priestess for such a shrine, although, making poetry of the pretty name of Lilias, Adam Forrester was wont to call her "Lily" because her form was as fragile and her cheek almost as pale. As they passed hand in hand down the avenue of drooping elms that led from the portal of Lilias Fay's paternal mansion they seemed to glance like winged creatures through the strips of sunshine, and to scatter brightness where the deep shadows fell. first person second person third-person omniscient third-person limited
