The correct answer is C. Processed foods are a staple of the American diet.
Explanation:
In general terms, there are three types of sentences: simple, complex and compound. A simple sentence is a sentence composed only by one clause usually containing a subject, a verb and a complement which expresses a complete idea or thought (independent clause). On the other hand, compound sentences contain one independent clause (phrase that expresses a complete idea) and one dependent clause (phrase that does not express a complete idea) joined by words such as after, while or since and compound sentences are composed of two independent clauses joined by conjunctions such as and or punctuation sign such as comma or semicolon. In the case of "processed foods are a staple of the American diet" this is a simple sentence as it is compound only by one subject (processed foods), one verb (are) and one complement (a staple of the American diet) and in general only one clause or complete idea.
<em>Notice that Euchner uses present-tense verbs in his account. </em>
<em> 1. In what verb tense is historical text usually written?</em>
- <em>In both past and present. It is necessary to use the present tense to discuss the actions and ideas that are present in the text. For example, “Edgar Allan Poe in his Method of Composition explains all the steps he generally follows to write short stories”. In this example it is stated that despite Edgar Allan Poe is dead his ideas are present in his Method of Composition. </em>
- <em>We use the past tense when writing about specific historical events. For example, “Winston Churchill said that Germany was dangerously building his armies again.” </em>
<em> 2. What effect does using present-tense verbs create? </em>
- <em>The effect it has, is related to the fact that despite the writer is dead or alive, his or her ideas continue to be present. Literature is a present observable fact.</em>
Answer: The filmmakers make this choice because some of the scenes or props are too hard to re-create. It can also be because the characters are not easy to relate to, therefore they have to add more. The filmmakers also cover blank spaces in the story with extra characters and/or scenes.
