Brief Explanations
- Sentence Correction:
- For "all the ice in the lemonade begun to disappear", "all" should be capitalized as it's the start of a sentence, and "begun" is incorrect. The past - tense form of "begin" for a simple past action (the ice starting to disappear) is "began".
- For "the jelly in slim's sandwich driped out onto hiz shirt", "slim's" should be capitalized as it's a possessive form of a name (assuming Slim is a person's name), "driped" is misspelled (the correct past - tense is "dripped"), and "hiz" is misspelled (it should be "his").
- For "we catch that there bus at the corner of elm street and first avenue", "we" should be capitalized, "that there" is incorrect (it should be "that" or "the"), "elm street" and "first avenue" should be capitalized as they are proper nouns (street names).
- For "traveler airlines allows you to take one suit case and a carry on bag", "traveler airlines" should be capitalized (assuming it's an airline name, like Traveler Airlines), "suit case" should be "suitcase", and "carry on" should be "carry - on".
- Syllable Count:
- To count syllables, we can use the method of clapping for each syllable. For "representative", we clap as "rep - re - sen - ta - tive" (5 syllables). For "technology", it's "tech - no - lo - gy" (4 syllables). For "currency", it's "cur - ren - cy" (3 syllables). For "substituted", it's "sub - sti - tu - ted" (4 syllables).
- Cause and Effect:
- In "The ticket line was so long that we missed the first part of the movie", the cause is "The ticket line was so long" (the reason something happened) and the effect is "we missed the first part of the movie" (the result of the cause).
- Common Noun from Proper Noun:
- A proper noun like "Mr. Beckman" (a specific person) has a common noun "man" (a general category). A proper noun like "Arlington, Virginia" (a specific place) has a common noun "city" (a general category for a place like Arlington).
- Adjective Forms:
- For the adjective "heavy", the comparative form (used when comparing two things) is formed by changing the "y" to "i" and adding "er" (since it's a two - syllable adjective ending in "y"), so it's "heavier". The superlative form (used when comparing more than two things) is formed by changing the "y" to "i" and adding "est", so it's "heaviest".
- Word Relationship:
- "Substitute" and "switch" have similar meanings. A synonym is a word that has the same or nearly the same meaning as another word. So, they are synonyms.
- Word Choice:
- "Cent" refers to a unit of currency. "Scent" refers to a smell. "Sent" is the past - tense of "send". Since we are talking about the smell (of aftershave) lingering in the room, the correct word is "scent".
