Question

1. analyze how changing the complete subject affects sentence meaning. start with \dogs bark\ and expand the subject in two different ways to create completely different meanings.

Explanation:

When we change the complete subject in a sentence, it can significantly alter the meaning. For example, if we start with "Dogs bark" and expand the subject to "The neighbor's dogs bark", it gives a more specific context about which dogs are barking. Another expansion could be "Fierce - looking dogs bark", which adds a description about the appearance of the dogs. These expansions change the focus and details related to the subject, thus changing the overall meaning of the sentence.

Answer:

1. "The neighbor's dogs bark" - This expansion gives a specific context (the neighbor's) about the dogs, changing the meaning from a general statement about dogs to a statement about a particular set of dogs.
2. "Fierce - looking dogs bark" - Here, the description "fierce - looking" is added to the subject, which changes the focus to the appearance of the dogs while still keeping the action (bark) the same.
