Which of the following describes the difference between a clause and a phrase?

A clause has commas around it or after it, but a phrase does not.

A clause modifies another word in the sentence, but a phrase does not.

A clause has a subject and a verb, but a phrase does not.

A clause occurs at the beginning of a sentence, but a phrase does not.

Answers

Answer:

It’s clause has a verse and subject and phase do not o just took the text I got all 4 answer right

Explanation:

The clause has a subject and a verb, but a phrase does not is describing the difference between a clause and a phrase.

A clause is a linguistic term that refers to a group of words that are characterized by having the unity that exists between the verb and the subject. For instance.

My mother goes to the supermarket.

In this sentence, we have a subject (my mother) who is going to carry out an activity (verb/goes).

On the other hand, a phrase is a linguistic term that refers to a group of words that, unlike a clause, is not characterized by the unity between the verb and the subject, in fact, it may lack a verb or subject. For example :

The plane to Rio de Janerio.

In this sentence, there is a subject (airplane) but it does not have a verb.

According to the above, the answer is C. because it shows the difference between the clauses and the sentences.

What is the author's purpose for writing the following?

The Pearl River is a lovely old thing, slow and coppery and traced in fine, sandy bars for 500 miles on its way to the Gulf. Off the main channel, it's home to wild peacocks and black bears and other things with mouths.

Question 3 options:

A.To describe the river and the narrator's fear of animals in the surrounding area.


B.To provide a serious comparison between the river and the safety of the boat.


C.To show the inner conflict between the narrator and his brother, Bird.


D.To persuade the reader to explore nature and wildlife.

Answers

D, i really don’t know how to explain what it. I’m only writing this so it lets me submit this.

The purpose was A. to describe the river and the narrator's fear of animals in the surrounding area.

Harrison Scott Key's "My Dad Tried to Kill Me with an Alligator" narrates his growing-up years with his thrill, adventure-loving father. The whole text is a reminiscence of what the narrator felt growing up with his father who loved to teach his sons life lessons the hard way.

Throughout the whole narrative, the narrator reveals how his father "Pop" and brother "Bird" helped him grow up in the most dangerous ways. They would go to the swamps, fishing or doing things "god knows what" which would always leave the narrator feeling like he'll die any moment. But through all the dangers and the 'scary encounters' with the sea monsters, he also came to realize how his father had shown his love in his own way. After the death of his father and he also became a father of two daughters, he missed the thrill and adventure he had with his brother and father. The given excerpt shows the time Bird took him out to fish on their own, without their father. The narrator describes the Pearl River but also revealed the "wild peacocks and black bears and other things with mouths." This shows his fear of animals in the surrounding areas.

The whole experience of going fishing with his brother as well as his growing-up years with his adventure-loving father is revealed by the narrator. But at the same time, he also missed those days years later when he became a father himself and his father had died. The given excerpt from the narrative is to describe the river as well as the narrator's fear of animals. Thus, the correct answer is option A.

Gina is summarizing and synthesizing the information about homeless shelters. So, option C or (iii): "She is summarizing and synthesizing information" is the correct answer.

How does Gina strategize the reading of homeless shelters?

To understand the non-clear information about the articles she differentiates the known information and doubtful information separately.
