B. Knowing he would be late, she took a nap.
C. Realizing you are getting older is sobering.
D. Hiding in the tree fort he had built as a kid.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: D. would be a sentence fragment because it dose not have a person or subject who is completing the action...My teacher explains it as " If some one just came up to you and said 'Hiding in the tree fort he had built as a kid.' would you understand them? You would be so confused but if it had a subject 'He was hiding in the tree fort he had built as a kid.' It would still be strange but you would understand what they were saying."

Which part of this excerpt from Homer’s Odyssey depicts Ulysses revealing his true identity to his faithful servants Eumaeus and Philaetius?He saw their secret souls, and thus began: "Those vows the gods accord; behold the man! Your own Ulysses! twice ten years detain'd By woes and wanderings from this hapless land: At length he comes; but comes despised, unknown, And finding faithful you, and you alone. All else have cast him from their very thought, E'en in their wishes and their prayers forgot! Hear then, my friends: If Jove this arm succeed, And give yon impious revellers to bleed, My care shall be to bless your future lives With large possessions and with faithful wives; Fast by my palace shall your domes ascend, And each on young Telemachus attend, And each be call'd his brother and my friend. To give you firmer faith, now trust your eye; Lo! the broad scar indented on my thigh, When with Autolycus' sons, of yore, On Parnass' top I chased the tusky boar." His ragged vest then drawn aside disclosed The sign conspicuous, and the scar exposed: Eager they view'd, with joy they stood amazed With tearful eyes o'er all their master gazed: Around his neck their longing arms they cast, His head, his shoulders, and his knees embraced; Tears followed tears; no word was in their power; In solemn silence fell the kindly shower. The king too weeps, the king too grasps their hands; And moveless, as a marble fountain, stands.

Which sentence uses commas correctly?a. The southern city Savannah is a beautiful place.
b. The southern city Savannah, is a beautiful place.
c. The southern city, Savannah, is a beautiful place.
d. The southern city, Savannah is a beautiful place.

Answers

The question is asking us to answer Which sentence uses commas correctly?. We see here that Savannah is the name of the city and that the city is already mentioned - the name is an extra information. You could for example say "The southern city is a beautiful place". This means that the information about the city name is added, and an added, unnecessary information is surrounded by comas on both sides - so the correct answer isc. The southern city, Savannah, is a beautiful place.

Answer:

The answer is C

Explanation:

Savannah is extra info

What is sentence ?

A sentence is a verbal expression in linguistics and grammar, as in the English example "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog." It is often described in conventional grammar as a group of words that communicates a full notion or as a unit made up of a subject and predicate. It is often described in non-functional linguistics as a maximum unit of syntactic structure, such as a component. According to functional linguistics, it is a group of written texts that are separated by markers like periods, question marks, and exclamation points as well as graphological traits like capital letters. Contrast this idea with a curve, which is defined by phonological characteristics like pitch and loudness as well as markers like pauses; and with a clause,

Hence option C is correct.
