Which sentence contains a linking verb? A. George will be moving in one month.
B. I will be on time for the meeting.
C. Michelle slowly walked to the store.
D. The plants wilted in the stifling heat.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: The correct answer is B. I will be on time for the meeting. This is because linking verbs don't show any action, rather they describe the relation between the subject and the object. This is why he will exist in the meeting on time, as "be" is not a verb that expresses action.

C. My dad doesn’t have a hobby he is too busy working.

D. I enjoy playing video games because they are so exciting.

Answers

The correct answer is C. My dad doesn’t have a hobby he is too busy working.

Explanation:

A sentence is considered as fused if the sentence contains two independent clauses together without proper punctuation such as a semicolon or a transition. This type of grammar error can be seen in "My dad doesn’t have a hobby he is too busy working" because in this sentence there are two independent sentences each with a subject, verb and even object/complement "My dad doesn’t have a hobby", and " he is too busy working" but there is no punctuation or transition between them.
The right answer is C. My dad doesn’t have a hobby he is too busy working. The fused sentence is when there are 2 closes in a sentence, but there is no punctuation, which is an error.
