Answer:

The hopeful actors agreed to meet in the dressing room before the audition.

Explanation:

An adverbial phrase is a kind of prepositional phrase that functions as an adverb. Therefore, it answers the questions <em>Where? When? How? To what extent? </em>or<em> Why?  </em>and can modify a verb.  

In this sentence, we have two adverbial phrases.  

1. in the dressing room  

2. before the audition  

They both modify the verb 'to meet'. The first one is answering the question "Where?" The second one is answering the question "When?"

Answer:

the first one

Explanation:

The other sentences contain only noun phrases:  

the persistent rain; large, rippling puddles; soggy front lawns (second sentence);

the ongoing delay; the cranky, grumbling audience (third sentence);

the oblivious pedestrian; loud car horns (fourth sentence).

The last sentence also contains a participial phrase, "blaring at him", used as an adjective.

Assume that Joyce's physiological and safety needs are met, but her other needs are not met. According to Maslow's need hierarch
Aneli [31]

Answer:

Joyce is most likely to be motivated by her love/belonging needs.

Explanation:

According to psychologist Abraham Maslow, people are motivated by their needs. Those needs have a certain hierarchy, the most basic (even primitive) ones being fulfilled before the most developed ones. They follow the sequence below:

1. physiological;

2. safety;

3. love/belonging;

4. esteem;

5. self-actualization.

Therefore, only when our physiological needs are satisfied (breathing, eating, drinking water, etc.) is that we are driven by our need for safety. <u>When both, our physiological needs and safety needs, are met, we are motivated by our love/belonging needs. That is the current need that motivates Joyce, since the previous two have been met.</u> Once she feels loved (by family/friends), once she has a sense of belonging, she will be motivated by her needs of esteem, and so on.

Read the poem below and answer the question that follows.
Serhud [2]
By the words "detestable" and "die", we can tell that the mood of this poem is dark and angry. The author obviously is not proud of what humans have done. Also, the word "encroach" makes the mood sad. The author points out what terrible things humans are and how rude we are (which is quite true, based on what happened on January 20th).
