The answer would be decision; verdict means the decision of a case
This question is incomplete, since it is missing the sentence we are supposed to analyze. I've found the complete question online. It is as follows:
"To the best of our knowledge, he decided that his major would be acting." Which does the sentence contain?
a) a conjunction
b) a gerund
c) an infinitive
d) a participle
Answer:
The sentence contains letter b) a gerund.
Explanation:
<u>Gerunds are formed by adding -ing to verbs, but they function like nouns in a sentence</u>.
In "To the best of our knowledge, he decided that his major would be acting," we have the verb "be" functioning as a linking verb, connecting the subject "major" to a word or words that provide information about that it. That word providing information on the subject is the gerund "acting", which therefore functions as a subject complement in this sentence.
Romanticism is an
international artistic and philosophical movement that redefined
the fundamental ways in which people thought
about themselves and about their world, whereas neoclassicism draw inspiration from the "classical" art and culture of Greek and Rome. I would say that, out of your list, Romanticism is: enjoys the mysterious and strange, prefers untamed nature to rule conscious society, expresses a tone of melancholy because time does not permit full realization of ideals. I think the rest are neoclassicism.
Hope this helped!
