What are verbs?Verbs are defined as the verbs used in a phrase to express activity and indicate what the subject is doing. An inactive verb form is one that is called verbal. A verb can be a noun, an adjective, or an adverb. In English, the verb is the most "essential" aspect of speech.
The passive verb is defined as when the verb in a sentence does the work for the subject rather than the other way around. Pullum lists seven different varieties of passive voice. They are passive when used with the verb be, prepositionally, bare, embedded, adjectivally, get, and concealed. In passive sentences, the object receiving the action is the sentence's subject, while the object performing the action may be included toward the conclusion.
Thus, Toby was kicking around a ball in the field. Was is a passive form of verb.

3. Identify the finite verb/s in the following sentence: After singing with
great enthusiasm, our team won the coveted spirit cup.
A. 'singing'
B. 'won'
C. 'coveted'
D. 'singing' and 'won'
E. 'won' and 'coveted'
ILL MARK BRAINLIEST
Answer:
The finite verbs in the sentence are:
B. "won"
Explanation:
Finite verbs are the ones that convey person, number, and tense. These verbs will change according to the message we wish to convey and the context. On the other hand, non-finite verbs do not show tense, number, or person. They are verbs in the infinitive form, or gerunds and participles. Having that in mind, we can choose letter B as the correct option. "Won" conveys the past tense and refers to "our team", a third-person subject.
Note: watch out for "coveted". It is a participle that is being used as an adjective. It cannot be considered a finite verb.

Item 2
In Antigone, Antigone argues with Creon during Scene 2.
Why does Sophocles include this argument?

to show that neither Antigone nor Creon is capable of acting mercifully, which leads to both of their downfalls
Explanation:
Why did Hazrat Ibrahim had a blessed family
Answer:
Hazrat Ibrahim had a blessed family because he was a prophet. Most importantly, the reason in this that he had alot sacrifices for Allah and Islam. When the little amount of dates and water left by Ibrahim was over within few days, she felt thirsty and her infant son Ismail was crying to death. She ran madly between the two nearby hillocks of Safa and Marwah looking for water. She ran seven times. The hills and hillocks echoed with her cries. This was an ordeal, a great ordeal of God. She cried again and again but called none except Him. God showered His mercy upon her and a forceful spring of sweet water gushed out near Ismail’s feet. She called it Zamzam and it is flowing at the same place for the last 4,000 years. Almighty Allah declared Safa and Marwah as His signs and ordained the pilgrims to run seven times between them like His devoted lady, Hajrah: “Behold! Safa and Marwa are among the Symbols of Allah. So if those who visit the House in the Season or at other times, should compass them round, it is no sin in them. And if any one obeyeth his own impulse to Good, be sure that Allah is He Who recogniseth and knoweth.

Read the two passages and answer the question.
Passage 1
[1]Nothing that comes from the desert expresses its extremes better than the unhappy growth of the
tree yuccas.Tormented, thin forests of it stalk drearily in the high mesas, particularly in that
triangular slip that fans out eastward from the meeting of the Sierras and coastwise hills. The
yucca bristles with bayonet-pointed leaves, dull green, growing shaggy with age like an old
[5] man's tangled gray beard, tipped with panicles of foul, greenish blooms. After its death, which is
slow, the ghostly hollow network of its woody skeleton, with hardly power to rot, makes even
the moonlight fearful. But it isn't always this way. Before the yucca has come to flower, while
yet its bloom is a luxurious, creamy, cone-shaped bud of the size of a small cabbage, full of
sugary sap, the Indians twist it deftly out of its fence of daggers and roast the prize for their
[10] own delectation.
Passage 2
[1]I wandered lonely as a cloud
That floats on high o'er vales and hills,
When all at once I saw a crowd,
A host, of golden daffodils;
[5]Beside the lake, beneath the trees,
Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.
Continuous as the stars that shine
And twinkle on the milky way,
They stretched in never-ending line
[10]Along the margin of a bay:
Ten thousand saw I at a glance,
Tossing their heads in sprightly dance.
The waves beside them danced; but they
Out-did the sparkling waves in glee:
[15]A poet could not but be gay,
In such a jocund company:
I gazed—and gazed—but little thought
What wealth the show to me had brought:
For oft, when on my couch I lie
[20]In vacant or in pensive mood,
They flash upon that inward eye
Which is the bliss of solitude;
And then my heart with pleasure fills,
And dances with the daffodils.
Both passages describe a plant. The yucca tree "stalks drearily" while the daffodil "dances." What does this word choice reveal about how the two passages view nature?
Passage 1 views nature as boring while Passage 2 views natures as exciting.
Passage 1 views nature as enlightening while Passage 2 views nature as depressing.
Passage 1 views nature as harsh while Passage 2 views nature as delightful.
Passage 1 views nature as intense while Passage 2 views nature as relaxing.

Read the excerpt below and answer the question.
Of their married felicity but little is known, perhaps for the reason that Tennessee, then living with his partner, one day took occasion to say something to the bride on his own account, at which, it is said, she smiled not unkindly and chastely retreated—this time as far as Marysville, where Tennessee followed her, and where they went to housekeeping without the aid of a Justice of the Peace. Tennessee’s Partner took the loss of his wife simply and seriously, as was his fashion. But to everybody’s surprise, when Tennessee one day returned from Marysville, without his partner’s wife—she having smiled and retreated with somebody else—Tennessee’s Partner was the first man to shake his hand and greet him with affection…
One night, when the pines beside the cabin were swaying in the storm, and trailing their slender fingers over the roof, and the roar and rush of the swollen river were heard below, Tennessee’s Partner lifted his head from the pillow, saying, “It is time to go for Tennessee; I must put ‘Jinny’ in the cart,” and would have risen from his bed but for the restraint of his attendant. Struggling, he still pursued his singular fancy: “There, now, steady, ‘Jinny’—steady, old girl. How dark it is! Look out for the ruts—and look out for him, too, old gal! Sometimes, you know, when he’s blind drunk, he drops down right in the trail. Keep on straight up to the pine on the top of the hill. Thar—I told you so!—thar he is—coming this way, too—all by himself, sober, and his face a-shining. Tennessee! Pardner!”
And so they met.
In at least one hundred words, describe how the theme of friendship and loyalty is developed in these excerpts.
Answer and Explanation:
The text presented above, develops the theme of friendship and loyalty by showing how the company of true friendships is able to strengthen a person, allowing difficult and confusing moments to be taken with more tranquility and comfort. True friendships promote care and concern for each other and this is evident at the end of the text, when friends are afraid that one of them will fall from the hill, because he is drunk and so they will seek him out to prevent this accident from happening, even if that friend didn't drink anything.
"Tennessee’s Partner took the loss of his wife simply and seriously, as was his fashion. But to everybody’s surprise, when Tennessee one day returned from Marysville, without his partner’s wife—she having smiled and retreated with somebody else—Tennessee’s Partner was the first man to shake his hand and greet him with affection" This shows that they respect and care for one another. "..when he’s blind drunk, he drops down right in the trail. Keep on straight up to the pine on the top of the hill. Thar—I told you so!—thar he is—coming this way, too—all by himself, sober, and his face a-shining. Tennessee! Pardner!” These actions show care and respect for one another, and thus their friendship blooms from these kind actions of genuine empathy. And so it develops the theme of friendship and loyalty by showing how the companionship of true friendships can strengthen a person, allowing difficult and confusing moments to be taken with more ease and comfort. True friendships as such promote care and concern for each other and this is evident at the end of the text when friends are afraid that one of them will fall from the hill because he is drunk and so they seek him out to prevent this accident from happening, even if that friend didn't drink anything.

What is most likely the author's purpose for writing "The Earthquake"?
Answer: The author's purpose is their intent for writing something. To either persuade, inform or entertain an audience.
Explanation:
High chance they wrote it to inform others on a earthquake that resulted in something. And to give facts about the earthquake.
Most earthquakes are along the edges of structural plates. This is the place where most volcanoes are as well. Be that as it may, most earthquakes are brought about by the communication of the plates not the development of magma .
What is context of The Earthquake?Most earthquakes straightforwardly underneath a well of lava are brought about by the development of magma. A writer's motivation is his justification for or aim recorded as a hard copy.
A writer's motivation might be to entertain the peruser, to convince the peruser, to illuminate the peruser, or to mock a condition.
Researchers have observed that earthquakes that are shallow by and large cause more harm over the ground than those more profound. Earthquakes as shallow as 2 to 4 miles cause devastating harm and are more cut off then those of 50 miles.

Do people have freedom and liberty society from your point of view?
Answer:
For the most part, yes.
People's freedom and liberty are upheld by the law-they are allowed to do whatever they please (as long as it isn't dangerous and isn't illegal ofc). From what I can tell, people (almost) everywhere are being offered rights, and being able to follow your own religion, choose what you want to wear, listen to whatever music you want to.

Tips on sneaking out? Best gets brainliest!!
Answer:
i have plenty. :)
Explanation:
if there are any alarms for doors in your house, make sure you disable them (with caution and if you can), and try to open the doors quietly.
you also need to think of the obstacles between you and the door. where are your house's loud spots? what are your parents habits? is there any chance your parents will wake up at the exact moment you're trying to sneak out?
presumably you're sneaking out to meet up with friends, or head to a party. make sure your plans are the same and you're not going to sneak out and find yourself alone. keep up by texting or something, and plan a convenient meeting place for everyone (if there isn't one already.)
aim for dark areas, or try to get picked up in a car far a couple blocks away from where you live. stay out of sight and you most likely won't get caught.
if you have any pets, make sure to keep them away or try to convince your parents to have them sleep in their room.
a good method when you're first sneaking out is to [fake] use bathroom. flush the toilet, run the water, and shuffle back and forth to the bathroom. this will make them less alarmed when you get up. also, try to step as lightly as possible if you're about to leave. be extra cautious around squeaky floorboards and doors.
if its in the night time, make sure to put your pajamas on when you walk back in AFTER sneaking out. you can easily just say you were out for a walk and they'll most likely believe you.
i gave a lot of info, so hope this helps!
good luck and stay safe!! <3

Read the sentences:
She took off the backpack and opened it. Inside were three textbooks and a full binder.
Write down which sentence contains a compound subject.
Answer:
The sentence that contains a compound subject is:
Inside were three textbooks and a full binder.
Explanation:
When a sentence has two or more simple subjects joined by "and", "or", or a (series of) comma(s), it has a compound subject. To better illustrate it, take a look at the examples below:
- The cat jumped onto the table. → simple subject: the cat.
- The cat and the dog jumped onto the table. → compound subject: the cat and the dog.
We have a compound subject in the sentence "Inside were three textbooks and a full binder." However, this may be a bit difficult to see at first because, in English, the first element of a sentence is usually the subject. Thus, we may initially think that the subject is "inside". The sentence is actually inverted. The compound subject is "three textbooks and a full binder." Let's change the sequence so that it is clearer:
- Three textbooks and a full binder were inside.
