b.

d.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

The answer is: C. dry, twilit limbo.

In the poem "The Hollow Men,! by T. S. Eliot, the men gather on the banks of a "tumid" river:

"In this last of meeting places


We grope together


And avoid speech


Gathered on this beach of the tumid river"

The men are close to one another without saying a word - they are unable to seek God's redemption. As a result, their souls are stranded betweel hell and heaven.

To get to the store, Moria had to cross the street, walk to the corner, and to take the shortcut across the park.walk to the corner
no error
to take the shortcut
Moria had to
cross the street

Answers

Answer: The error is in "to take the shortcut".

Explanation:

In the sentence "To get to the store, Moria had to cross the street, walk to the corner, and to take the shortcut across the park" we have the preposition "to" after the verb "had". The preposition already refers to each and every element that is mentioned after it, so there is no need to repeat it. It refers to "cross the street", "walk to the corner", and "take the shortcut across the park" as well.

In order to make the sentence grammatically correct, all we have to do is eliminate the preposition "to" that was repeated right before "take the shortcut across the park."

Thus, the correct form is:

To get to the store, Moria had to cross the street, walk to the corner, and take the shortcut across the park.
Well "and to take the shortcut" just doesnt sound right, the rest is fine..

Which sentence contains an adjective clause? A. Jan saw a stranger's wallet lying on the ground. B. The man whose wallet Jan found gave her a reward. C. Last Tuesday morning, Jan fed the ducks in Paradise Park. D. The park on the east side of town is a good place to walk and bike.

Answers


I will also agree that B: The man whose wallet Jan found gave her a reward.

Characteristics of Adjective clause:

First, the sentence must have a verb and a subject.

Second, it must have a relative pronoun (i.e. that, which, whose, whom, and who) or relative adverb (why, where, and when).  If you notice, the relative pronouns in a round about way refers to someone or something. For example, who does the wallet refer to? It refers to the man. The relative adverbs as you can tell answer question words. 

Pattern to look for:

Sometimes it is tricky to find clauses.

With Relative Adjectives there are a couple of things to look for.

The beginning should start with a relative pronoun or relative adverb then add a subject and finally add a verb: RP (or RA) + S+ V= relative adjective clause

Another formula for finding  a relative adjective is Relative pronoun acting as the subject  with a verb added: RP as S + V.

Hopefully this helps and good luck.  
B. An adjective clause must contain a subject and a verb, begin with a relative pronoun, and answer the question what kind? how many? which one?
