The dance crew, after performing for the crowd, wash the paint from their faces. Which subject-verb agreement rule applies to this sentence? use a singular verb with a singular subject use a plural verb with a plural subject use a plural verb with a collective subject functioning as individual parts use a singular verb with a collective subject functioning as a unit

Answers

The correct subject-verb agreement rule applied to the sentence would be to use a plural verb with a collective subject functioning as individual parts.

In the sentence, we can see that the "dance crew" is a collective unit, HOWEVER, since the sentence is talking about "washing paint from their faces", then we need to treat the crew individually (the crew do not have one joint face). This leads us to using a plural verb.

Answer:

C

Explanation:

use a plural verb with a collective subject functioning as individual parts

Read the excerpt below from Life of Caesar by Plutarch and answer the question that follows.At Rome, moreover, Caesar won a great and brilliant popularity by his eloquence as an advocate, and much good will from the common people for the friendliness of his manners . . . . He had also a large and gradually increasing political influence in consequence of his lavish hospitality and the general splendour of his mode of life. At first his enemies thought this influence would quickly vanish . . . . [T]he man who is thought to have been the first to see beneath the surface of Caesar’s public policy and to fear it, . . . and who comprehended the powerful character hidden beneath his kindly and cheerful exterior, namely Cicero, said that in most of Caesar’s political plans and projects he saw a tyrannical purpose . . . .



Based on the excerpt above, which statement about Caesar is true?

A. Caesar was disliked by the common people.
B. Caesar had no desire for a political career.
C. Cicero believed Caesar had noble political intentions.
D. Caesar gained popularity and political influence but also gained enemies during his life.

Answers

the answer will be D)The Caesar gained popularity and political influence but also gained enemies during his life

The correct answer is: D) Ceasar gained popularity and political influence but also gained enemis during his life.

This excerpt clearly shows this as we can see both sides. In one side Ceasar's popularity and political influence is shown. His skills and charisma made him a well known leader between the elite and the common people of that era.

On the other hand, later in the paragraph the word "enemies" is shown, meaning he was not surrounded only by good intentions. One of this enemies is named in the text, Cicero, he realized that Ceasar hospitality and manners were not desinterested, they were political maneuvers to gain more power and control.

We can see that the point of the text is to describe both the followers and the enemies that Ceasar gained.

Option A is incorrect as the paragraph states:  "...much good will from the common people for the friendliness of his manners" showing they liked him.

Option B is proven wrong through the text as his actions were directly related to his political career.

And option C is wrong because Cicero is labeled as one of his first enemies as he discovered his true intentions.

Answer:

King Minos demands fourteen Athenian youths each year to pay for his son’s life.  

The princess provides Theseus with a sharp sword and a ball of thread.

Theseus slays the Minotaur.

Aegeus falls into the sea and drowns.

Explanation:

"The Cruel Tribute" by James Baldwin is based on the Greek mythology of the  monster Minotaur and the tribute asked by King Minos.

As a form of revenge and re-compensation for his son's death, King Minos asked the city of Athens to pay an annual tribute of seven maidens and seven young men to his kingdom. One year, Theseus, the king's son decided to volunteer for the tribute. There, he met the princess who fell in love with him. So, before they were taken to the cave of the monster Minotaur, she provided a thread and a sword to Theseus. The thread was for them to find their way back to the entrance and the sword to kill Minotaur. Theseus slays the monster and escaped with the other youths, along with the princess. King Aegeus had told the men to put up a white sail if his son is alive. But in their excitement and happiness, they forgot to put up the white sail. When Aegeus saw the black sail still flying in the approaching ship, he fell into the sea and drowned.
