Answers

Answer 1

Answer: The answers are C and D Good is not a noun, and thus it cannot be a subject, because it is an adjective. B - gardeners, is a noun, but not a subject, it is the object of this sentence. C is the correct answer, it is a pronoun, which substitutes a noun, so they basically mean the same. And D is also correct, because it is the "doer of the action", it is falling. You can easily find the subject by asking the question - Who is doing it?

Answer 2

rain is a subject and so is gardeners. the rest are adjectives, articles, etc.

In the third paragraph, Buddy tells us that his friend is “still a child.” We usually think of a child as loving, joyful, believing, trusting, and innocent of the evil or meanness we might find in the adult world. Find at least three of her actions that reveal that Buddy’s friend is a child in any of these ways.

Answers

Answer:

Find the actions below.

Explanation:

1. Buddy's friend was excited at the arrival of the weather which ushers in Christmas. She refers to it as the 'fruitcake weather' and goes ahead to bake thirty cakes.

2. She finds it difficult to count money. So, when there was a disparity between her and Buddy about whether the money they counted was $12.73 or $13, she rather opted to throw $1 away because of her dislike for anything that was thirteenth.

3. When shouted upon by their two relatives for feeding the seven-year-old Buddy with Whisky, she reacted like a child by crying and running into her room.

The above scenarios are instances where Buddy's friend who was about 60 years old exhibited characters that showed that she was 'still a child'.

Who on earth would have come dressed up as the Statue of Liberty?How is the form of who or whom used in the sentence?
subject
direct object
object of a preposition
possessive

Answers

The correct answer is subject.

The pronoun who is used as the subject of a sentence, whereas whom is used as the object (so you can eliminate direct object and object of a preposition immediately). Possessive form of who is whose, so that is incorrect as well. We are left with the subject - which is the correct answer.

The pronoun who is the doer of the action - you can change the pronoun and use a name (Sarah, for example) if it makes it easier for you to determine that it is indeed a subject.

The pronoun who in this sentence is used as a subject of the sentence, the doer of the action.
