The options that combine in a correct way the first three sentences of the passage are:

When I was visiting New York, I saw Amir, who lives there.

I saw Amir when I was visiting New York, which is where he lives.

I saw Amir, who lives in New York, when I was visiting.

The first of these sentences adds variety to the passage and correctly combines the three sentences by building the sentence with a subordinate clause ("When I was visiting New York"), an independent clause ("I saw Amir") and a non-defining relative clause ("who lives there"). The second and third sentences also include these three types of clauses (a subordinate clause, an independent clause and a relative clause). Moreover, in the three sentences, the subordinate clause is introduced by the subordinating conjunction "when".

Write ten sentences using five present participles and five past participles. Use the following list of verbs to form your parti

Valentin [98]

The 5 for present participle:
1. I have TALKED to my parents about my exam 
2. She has KNELT in front of the cross every time she has entered the church 
3. He has FELT love for her since he met her 
4. We have PRAYED for him since he became ill 
5. They have SMOKED cigarettes since they started college 

The 5 for past participle: 
1. The money was STOLEN because the vault was open 
2. I was HIT by a car last night when I was crossing the street 
3. They left the food in the freezer and they forgot to take it out so after a few hours the food was FROZEN 
4. In ancient cultures people were SACRIFICED in order to make gods happy 
5. In the past, horses were RIDDEN by men only. 

As you can see, passive sentences are the ones in which past participle is normally used. In a passive sentence you will say "horses were RIDDEN by men" instead of "men RODE horses", so you have to use verbs that can be used that way. For example, in the case of the verb "kneel", it would be difficult to use in past participle because a sentence in the passive form would make little or no sense at all.

bounded rationality

Explanation:

Bounded rationality refers to the understanding that when individuals make decisions, their coherence and good sense is restricted by several factors. In that respect, the outcome of their decision is limited by the information they possess, by their mental processes of acquiring knowledge and understanding, and by the time limitation for decision-making.
