Answer 1
Hi, 

The best definition for "prefix" would be B, one or more syllables placed in front of a base, or root, word.

~Elisabeth
Answer 2

The correct answer is D. One or more syllables placed at the end of a base, or root word

Explanation:

In the English language and many other languages, words are formed based on three different sections that include root words, prefixes, and suffixes. In the case of root words, these are basic words and the center of word-formation. On the other hand, suffixes and prefixes refer to one or more letters/syllables added to a root word, in this way, suffixes are those syllables or letters added after a root word and prefix those added before or at the front of a root word. For example, in the case of the word "preview" the root word is "view" that means see and the prefix is "pre" that means before. Considering this, a prefix is one or more syllables placed at the end of a base, or root word.

Mike wanted to go to the pool, but Jess wanted to go to the mall.
This is an example of which type of sentence?
A. Compound
B. Simple
C. Complex
D. Conjoined

Answers

The correct answer is A. Compound

Explanation:

According to grammar, a compound sentence is one that includes two or more independent clauses, which are sets of words with a subject, verb, and that express a complete idea. Besides this, a compound sentence can be identified because it is common coordinating conjunctions such as but, or, and, yet or so are used to link the clauses. The sentence "Mike wanted to go to the pool, but Jess wanted to go to the mall" is an example of this type of sentence, this can be explained as this sentence includes the coordinating conjunction "but", and also integrates to independent clauses "Mike wanted to go to the pool" and "Jess wanted to go to the mall" as each of this is a complete sentence by itself.

The correct answer is A, S-V-O. The subject is Jim, the verb is 'accepted,' then the direct object is the prize. The options including predicates describe Jim rather than the prize, and the second option would require the prize to be 'doing' something to something else in order for an indirect object to exist.

The inference is that Paz describes two roots that are laced into the night.

What is an inference?

It should be noted that an inference is a conclusion that can be deduced based on the information given.

In In "No Dogs Bark," the father knows the journey has ended when he sees roofs. This story, which is mostly told through dialogue, shows a poor Mexican father carrying his injured son on his back while he looks for assistance in the middle of the night. He reprimands the son, whose life of crime has caused the family sorrow and shame, while he fights on

The adverb that modifies the verb is ever. An adverb is a word that modifies or describes another word, such as an adjective (he sings loudly), a verb (ended too fast), or even a whole sentence (Fortunately, I had brought an umbrella). Although many adverbs finish in -ly, some, like swift, appear exactly like their adjective equivalents.

When rafting, you must always wear a life jacket. On this case, the adverb is ways.

excerpt from "Why Equal Pay Is Worth Fighting For" by Senator Elizabeth Warren, April 17, 2014

I honestly can't believe that we're still arguing over equal pay in 2014.

When I started teaching elementary school after college, the public school district didn't hide the fact that it had two pay scales: one for men and one for women. Women have made incredible strides since then. But 40 years later, we're still debating equal pay for equal work.

Women today still earn only 77 cents for every dollar a man earns, and they're taking a hit in nearly every occupation. Bloomberg analyzed Census data and found that median earnings for women were lower than those for men in 264 of 265 major occupation categories. In 99.6 percent of occupations, men get paid more than women. That's not an accident; that's discrimination.

The effects of this discrimination are real, and they are long lasting. Today, more young women go to college than men, but unequal pay makes it harder for them to pay back student loans. Pay inequality also means a tougher retirement for women. . . .

For middle-class families today, it usually takes two incomes to get by, and many families depend as much on Mom's salary as they do on Dad's, if not more. Women are the main breadwinners, or joint breadwinners, in two-thirds of the families across the country, and pay discrimination makes it that much harder for these families to stay afloat.

Women are ready to fight back against pay discrimination, but it's not easy. Today, a woman can get fired for asking the guy across the hall how much money he makes. Here in the Senate, Sen. Barbara Mikulski (D-Md.) introduced the Paycheck Fairness Act to give women the tools to combat wage discrimination. It would help ensure that salary differences have something to do with the actual job that they are doing, and not just because they are women.

But when the sun was getting low and everything seemed most bewildering and discouraging, I found beautiful Calypso on the mossy bank of a stream, growing not in the ground but on a bed of yellow mosses in which its small white bulb had found a soft nest and from which its one leaf and one flower sprung. The flower was white and made the impression of the utmost simple purity like a snowflower. No other bloom was near it, for the bog a short distance below the surface was still frozen, and the water was ice cold. It seemed the most spiritual of all the flower people I had ever met.

The description of the apartment is far from fancy. Moreover, we learn that Della watches her expenses very carefully, and that the couple struggles to save money.

Hello! I also sent you another answer through a comment in your previous question, if you would like to check that out. Here is your answer in paragraph form, you hadn't told me how much you wanted me to write.

          Languages with a declining number of speakers should not be left out, considering people come from neighboring countries and cannot afford to live anywhere but the United States, per se. Unless the generation that speaks it, of course, are old. Then this will be okay to some extent because no younger generation will learn it. If it were to be a language of importance, like the Egyptian hieroglyphics or Native American petroglyphs; it is important to continue teaching the language for more discoveries.

Answers

her; Always take out the other person if you're confused. "Did you see she at the game?" doesn't sound right. "Did you see her at the game?" does.

The correct word to complete the sentence is 'her' because it is used as an object pronoun referring to the person seen at the game with Derek.

The correct word to use in the sentence 'Did you see Derek and ____________ at the game?' is 'her'. The reason for this is that when referring to the object of a sentence, which in this case is the person being seen at the game along with Derek, the object pronoun 'her' is appropriate. 'She' is a subject pronoun used when the person is the subject of the sentence, performing the action. For example, as in 'She went to the game.'

I would say that the best answer would be: The recent research on the role of good bacteria is fascinating, despite the contradictory findings. 
This answer would be the best solution as it provides a good transition into presenting the argument without attacking the other viewpoint.

Answer: B) The recent research on the role of good bacteria is fascinating, despite the contradictory findings.

Explanation: The tone of a text or sentence is the author's or speaker's attitude towards the audience, the subject, or event the characters of the text. An argumentative paper is a text that presents a claim and evidence to support it, in order to convince the readers of a perspective or point of view. From the given options, the one that has the most appropriate tone for an argumentative paper is option B, because by saying that the research is "fascinating despite the contradictory findings" creates interest in the audience, while the other options are discouraging, and talk poorly about the article.

A. order of importance B. process order C. chronological order D. spatial order

Answers

It's D. Spatial Order

None of the other answers make sense :/

Answer: The organizational structure used is D. spatial order.

Explanation: There are different ways in which a text can be organized. One type of organizational structure is spatial order, which consists in presenting elements as they are located in space. In other words, a text that shows spatial structure arranges elements in the exact way they appear in a particular place; therefore, prepositions and words denoting cardinal points are very common when using spatial order. In the passage provided, the text has been organized in relation to the location of the elements in the living room. In that way, words such as "south", "east", "right" and "west" show that the organizational structure used in this passage is spatial order.

"The swimming contest" ends with the word losers. ehat do you think the author means for readers to understand by this? What was "lost"?

Answers

they could have lost the swimming contest

The author likely intended for the word 'losers' at the end of 'The swimming contest' to imply a deeper emotional or psychological loss than merely not winning the competition, suggesting a possible loss of dignity, pride, or innocence.

When the author concludes the story with the word losers, it suggests that those involved in the swimming contest lost more than just the competition; they likely experienced a loss of dignity, pride, or self-esteem. The term lose is often used in various contexts, such as losing an item or losing a game, but it can also signify a deeper sense of failure or missing out on something significant.

For example, in the context of sports, a competitive swimmer who hates to lose would feel they are missing out on the triumph and satisfaction of victory. In a poetic sense, using the word 'lose' can invoke themes beyond the literal, as seen in the poem where 'lose' echoes themes of sport and possibly personal sacrifice or loss of innocence. Moreover, the various uses of the word lose convey different states of being deprived, such as forgetting something important, giving up on an endeavor, or the sadness of being left behind.
