Read the passage. A 40-ton creature, spinning around and around in the water, was coming right at my boat. We could hear its fin

s slapping the water with each revolution. The brute exhaled, and salty water sprayed us before it dove again. The sight of its tail flashing past and barely missing the boat sent shivers down my spine. When it came to the surface again, we could have counted the barnacles on its enormous head. What type of animal is the writer describing? A. shark B. seal C. penguin D. whale

A whale. (because of the weight, the fins, the fact that it sprayed salty water and the barnacles on the head)

Answer:

My sister and I <em><u>grew up</u></em> and went to school in Jamaica we <em><u>were educated</u></em> according to the British system. In 1997 we <u><em>were given</em></u> the opportunity to come to United states. We decided to finish high school before leaving our own country. We <em><u>were concerned</u></em> that the education in this country might not be as good as the one we had there, and we wanted to improve our English too.

My colleagues A, B, and I, <em><u>designed</u></em> an experiment to test the impact on worker perceptions of well-being when domesticated cats <em><u>were allowed</u></em> to freely roam various work environments in which the subjects were normally employed. Three test environments <em><u>were selected</u></em> for our experiment: a law office, a laboratory in which experiments <em><u>were performed</u></em> using laboratory rats,

Explanation:

In the two given passages, the words given in parenthesis are to be used however they can make the sentence correct. This means that they are to be used in such a way that they make the sentence work.

In the first passage, the words will be used in the past form, simple past tense. Moreover, they are written in the passive voice, to maintain the focus of the same subject throughout the whole passage.

Contrary to the first passage, the second passage is narrated in the active voice. But the tense form of the verbs in parenthesis still remains the same, meaning the verbs are used in their simple past tense forms too.

Which of the following may be used as counterarguments against the argument that nature can repair all things? Check all of the
Ierofanga [76]

The death of a loved one is a disaster that nature cannot heal.

Answer: A

Explanation

Nature will not heal that wound that is left after losing a loved one.

Even though nature creates fascinating patterns, it will not close the wound left.

However, time will be the determinant of the healing process.

This is because the effect of losing someone is eternal, and it is time that will heal the wounds.

Ultimately, nature will only create shorter healing, but once the one forgets about life, the injuries will be still fresh.

Therefore nature does not repair everything.
