8. To be sure, all this costs us all a good deal of money. This year's space budget is three times what it was in January 1961, and it is greater than the space budget of the previous eight years combined. That budget now stands at $5.4 billion a year-a staggering sum, though somewhat less than we pay for cigarettes and cigars every year. Space expenditures will soon rise some more, from 40 cents per person per week to more than 50 cents a week for every man, woman and child in the United Stated, for we have given this program a high national priority-even though I realize that this is in some measure an act of faith and vision, for we do not now know what benefits await us.Which answer is a complete and correct summary of this paragraph of Kennedy's speech?

Read the sentences.Two teams battled for the city championship. The Tomcats and the Huskies were the teams.
Which sentence combines the two sentences with an appositive phrase?
Two teams, the Tomcats and the Huskies, battled for the city championship.
Two teams battled for the city championship, and the Tomcats and the Huskies were the teams.
Two teams called the Tomcats and the Huskies battled for the city championship.
The Huskies and the Tomcats were two teams that battled for the city championship.

Answers

The correct answer is the first option, 'Two teams, the Tomcats and the Huskies, battled for the city championship', because that is the only example which contains an appositive phrase, 'the Tomcats and the Huskies'. 

Two teams, the Tomcats and the Huskies, battled for the city championship.

An appositive phrase renames the noun that comes directly before it. It is also surrounded by commas since the phrase can be removed from the sentence without altering the grammatical structure. In this sentence, the Tomcats and the Huskies rename, or clarify, which two teams are being talked about. Appositive phrases are frequently used to clarify who or what something is. For example, my sister, Sarah, is happy. The appositive "Sarah" clarifies the name of the sister.
