Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is: that I am reading

A subordinate clause ( a dependent clause ) begins with a subordinate conjunction (as, if, than, that, where, until etc) or a relative pronoun (that, who, whom etc.) and will have a subject and a verb. This clause can not stand alone as a sentence because it does not provide a complete thought.

that I am reading is a subordinate clause because it contains a relative pronoun that introduces it ( that ), a subject ( I ) and a verb ( am reading ). It can not stand on its own because it does not have any meaning.

Answer 2

Answer: The subordinate clause is that I am reading. :) I hope that helps you out!

Which conflict from The Tragedy of Julius Caesar is not an example of external conflict?Brutus and Cassius’ argument about bribes
Octavius and Mark Antony’s argument about Lepidus
Brutus’ inner struggle with assassinating Caesar
The war between Brutus’ and Octavius’ armies

Answers

I would say that Brutus' inner struggle with assassinating Caesar is not an example of external conflict, because it is an internal conflict.

Brutus’ inner struggle with assassinating Caesar

External conflicts happen when the character has a conflict with something outside of himself. Often these conflicts are versus another character, nature, or society. If something is not an external conflict, it is an internal conflict. An internal conflict is a problem the character has with himself. The struggle Brutus has with assassinating Caesar is an internal conflict and therefore NOT an example external conflict.

Answers

The best way to rewrite the roundabout expression "for the period of two weeks" is either "A" or "B". Sorry I picked two. I just didn't know which one to pick. But it is definitely not "C" or "D"

I think the answer is A. But, I'm in 5th grade and may be wrong.

How can you use a single parallel sentence to combine the sense in these two sentences? I regularly drudge five days a week. I habitually sleep through the weekends. I am used to drudging five days a week and sleep through the weekends. I am used to drudging five days a week and sleeping through the weekends. I am used to drudge five days a week and to sleep through the weekends. I am used to drudge five days a week and sleeping through the weekends.

Answers

The correct answer is 'I am used to drudging five days a week and sleeping through the weekends", because in a parallel sentence, there has to be the same form of the verb, in this case it is a participle. The other examples cannot be correct, because the scheme differs (the first verb is a participle, and the second one is infinitive, or vice versa, which is not correct in a parallel sentence) and "I am used to drudge five days a week and to sleep through the weekends" could be correct because there is the same verb form (both are infinitives), but since 'used to' has to be followed by a verb + -ing, it cannot be correct.
