Answer: the error is "We  also had a 20 metre pool."

Explanation: In grammar, tense is a category that expresses time reference with reference to the moment of speaking. Tenses are usually manifested by the use of specific forms of verbs, particularly in their conjugation patterns. In English, tenses include past, present and future. When writing we need to make sure that be consistent in the use of tense. In the given extract all the information is in present (we have, we run, etc) except for the phrase "We  also had a 20 metre pool" which is in past, it should be "We  also have a 20 metre pool."

Gordon Sterrett is embarrassed by his appearance. Which sentence from the passage best supports this statement?
Over [174]

Answer:

"This latter effect heightened by an unnatural glow which colored his face like a low, incessant fever."

Explanation:

The above sentence from the given excerpt most likely displays that Gordon Sterrett was extremely appalled by his shabby appearance. There is a detailed description of his appearance in the excerpt as 'small, slender, and darkly handsome, unusually framed eyes with long eyelashes with a blue semicircle of ill health' which clearly justifies Gordon's embarrassment to see him. The negative words 'unnatural glow', 'low face', and 'incessant fever' supports this claim effectively and justifies it constructively.

Read the sentence. Will you pick up the dog's toys in the yard, please? What is the mood of this sentence? indicative interrogat
Novay_Z [31]

Answer: Interrogative

Explanation: <u>Mood</u> <u>of</u> <u>a</u> <u>sentence</u> is used to express the intention of the auhtor (speaker or writer). The mood can be of 4 types:

  • <u>Indicative</u>, when express facts;
  • <u>Interrogative</u>, when refers to a question;
  • <u>Conditional</u>, is used when situations are uncertain or depends on something else;
  • <u>Imperative</u>, when it's being ask or order someone to do something;

The sentence "Will you pick up the dog's toys in the yeard, please?" is an <u>Interrogative</u>, because it is asking a question and, grammatically, the formation of the phrase is: auxiliary verb + another verb.

Read this passage from chapter 5 of The Prince.
mixas84 [53]

Answer:

1: The first sentence lists specific conditions followed by what might eventually happen.

3: The second sentence starts with the expression “for this reason.”

4: The second sentence lists potential consequences of the situation described.

Explanation:

"The Prince" (1532) is a political treatise by Niccolo Machiavelli (1469-1527) who was an  Italian diplomat, politician, historian, and political philosopher.

The Chapter 5 of the book is "Conquered Free States, with their own laws and orders"

Option 1 might or might not be a cause-and-effect structure. It might not necessarily be cause-and-effect structure. Two events happening one after and other does not show that the first one is the cause and the second one effect. But, it is also true that in cause-and-effect structure one event (result) happens followed by another event.

Option 3 is correct because it clearly shows a cause-and-effect structure <u>(for this reason).</u>

Option 4 is correct because the events stated in the second sentence are the consequences (effect/result) of the situations described in the first sentence.

Option 2 is not cause-and-effect structure. "On the one hand" and "on the other hand" is used to describe two parallel and contrasting ideas. Hence, it is a contrasting structure.

Option 5 is not a cause-and-effect structure because the phrase <em>"citizen of the conquered city"</em> in no way shows the cause and effect of any situation

The Best Villain Many stories feature a hero who behaves honorably and fights for good. These same stories often include a villa
Salsk061 [2.6K]

An example of a very effective villain who stands against the protagonists is Count Olaf from the book series <em>A Series of Unfortunate Events</em>. This series follows the life of the Baudelaire orphans. After both their parents die in a fire, they are sent to their new guardian, a man named Count Olaf. However, Olaf has no interest in caring for them. In fact, he only wants to take advantage of them in order to get their fortune.

The reason why Count Olaf is a good villain is because he contrasts the heroes in several ways. For example, while the heroes care about their family and friends deeply, Count Olaf is selfish and only cares about himself. This is demonstrated by the fact that Count Olaf does not have friends. He only has henchmen. Another reason is the fact that Count Olaf cares a lot about money, while money is not an important concern to the orphan children. Finally, Count Olaf is willing to commit terrible crimes and deeds in order to achieve what he wants, while the children are moral and responsible.

In conclusion, Count Olaf is a remarkable villain because he contrasts with the heroes, who are the Baudelaire orphans. Some of the ways in which he does so is by caring about himself and money more than he cares about anything else, as well as having very loose morals.
