Which of the underlined adjectives comes from a verb form? A)crashing B)gray C)rocky D)young

Answers

Crashing is an adjective in a verb form. So, if you crash, you're doing an action, making crash a verb. If you're crashing, you're still doing an action, but the word is now describing what you're doing, not saying what you're doing. Make sense?

Which kind of paragraph may consist solely of dialogue or a quotation?A) functional paragraph
B) topical paragraph
C) conclusion
D) introduction

Answers

Answer:

A) functional paragraph

Explanation:

Within the formal structure of the text, they play a role not so much in content development, but rather in keeping the informational fabric organized and related to each other. They tend to be paragraphs of short length that help to guide the exposition of thought, linking paragraphs with others to contribute to the unity, cohesion and coherence of the text. These paragraphs do not have a thematic sentence that expresses a central idea, since their sentences only collaborate with the development of the main propositions contained in the informative paragraphs that precede them or follow them.

A functional paragraph may consist soley of dialogue or quotation.

Which sentence sets a more serious tone? (4 points) Whoa! I'm sorry for your loss, man.
We can feel your pain, friend, seriously.
We cannot begin to know how this affects your outlook for the future.
Your outlook must have been shifted somewhat.

Answers

Answer:

We cannot begin to know how this affects your outlook for the future.

Explanation:

In order to set a serious tone, use of colloquial language must be avoided in all cases - unlike the first option, which contains expressions such as "whoa!".

Additionally, whenever the serious tone is set, it will be perceived as such by every participant in the conversation; it doesn't need to be explicitly announced, such as in the second option with the word "seriously".

Declaring an environment where no extreme emotions avail (and done so with certainty) is the correct way to set a serious tone, as done in the third option.
