C. The overplayed song has lost its appeal for me.
D. Its been too many weeks since it last rained.

Answers

Answer:

The answer is indeed letter C. The overplayed song has lost its appeal for me.

Explanation:

The options provided in the question concern the homophones "it's" and "its." They are commonly mistaken for each other dues to their sounding the same, and are consequently used erroneously. "It's" is the contraction of the subject pronoun "it" and the third-person singular verb "is." For that reason, "it's" is used as the subject of a clause, frequently substituting some previously mentioned noun or referring, for instance, to natural phenomena. The examples below help illustrate it:

- It's snowing again. - natural phenomenon

- My bike is making a weird noise when I try to start it. It's broken, I think. - substituting "my bike"

"Its", on the other hand, is a possessive adjective. It accompanies a noun, modifying it, to establish a relationship of possession between that noun and another one. Study the example below:

- That stray cat is constantly licking its paws. - the paws belong to the cat

Having that in mind, we can tell letter C is the only option that uses the correct homophone, since "its" establishes a relationship of possession between the song and the appeal. The song has an appeal. Its appeal (the song's) has been lost.

Letters A and B use "it's" when they should employ "its", and letter D does the opposite, using "its" when it actually needs the subject+verb "it's".

the answer is going to be. the overplayed song has lost its appeal for me

In the following sentence the word(s) that the adverb clause modifies is/are _____. The bus will pick up the children when school is out. A.) bus B.) is C.)will pick up D.) school

Answers

Answer:

C.) will pick up

Explanation:

Adverb clauses are groups of words with at least a subject and a verb and whose function is to modify or describe adjectives, verbs or other adverbs. They, therefore, provide information about time, place, reason, manner, condition, frequency or degree and are usually introduced by subordinate conjunctions such as when, where, since, because, while, although, after, as, as if, before, so that, unless, even, and until.

In the sentence, the adverb clause, which it's “when school is out,” modifies the verb phrase “will pick up” by providing information about time (It answers the question: When will the bus pick up the children?)
