A. participial

B. gerund

C. appositive

D. prepositional

Mr Jones is underlined word.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

1. The idea of alien life (proposed many years ago) has not yet been proven- Participle phrase.

The participle phrase starts either with the present   (dependably ending with -ing) or past   (dependably ending with -ed)

The participle phrase includes the modifiers or objects to complete the thought of the sentence.

2. (According to the letter) the wedding is June 25th.- Prepositional.

A prepositional phrase refers to the phrase which begins with a preposition and ends with the 'objects' of the prepositions that are nouns, gerund, clause or pronoun.

The pattern of the prepositional phrase follows by the object of the preposition having one or more modifiers.

3. Mikayla's homeroom teacher, (mr. Jones) is very proud of her- Appositive

Appositive refers to a word or a noun that is followed by another phrase or noun which identifies or rename the noun or word. In other words, it refers to the literary device which appears after or before a noun phrase or noun, used with a comma.

4. (Talking) is not allowed in class- Gerund

Gerund in a sentence functions as a noun. Hence in a sentence, a gerund will act as direct objects, subjects, subject complements, an object of prepositions or indirect objects. Every gerund ends in -ing, and so does present participles. On the other hand, present participles act as modifiers or complete progressive verbs.

Explanation:

Answer 2

The underlined phrase in the sentence is an appositive. Therefore option C is the correct response.

What is a Gerund?

Any nonfinite verb form, commonly but not always one that serves as a noun, is known as a gerund in many languages. It possesses features of both a verb and a noun in English, such as the capacity to accept a direct object and the ability to be modified by an adverb.

Six different gerunds exist Subject: My most recent pastime is biking. Bike riding is my favorite mode of transportation for commuting. My favorite pastime is riding. The indirect object was my sister's attempt at riding. I envision myself riding a bike every day.

Infinitives and gerunds can take the place of nouns in sentences. The present participle (-ing) form of the verb, such as singing, dancing, or running, is known as a gerund. Infinitive = to Plus the verb's basic form, such as to dance, to sing, or to run. Depending on the primary verb in the statement, you will either use a gerund or an infinitive.

The Gettysburg Address

"Fourscore and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent a new nation, conceived in liberty and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal. Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation or any nation so conceived and so dedicated can long endure. We are met on a great battlefield of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field as a final resting-place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this. But in a larger sense, we cannot dedicate, we cannot consecrate, we cannot hallow this ground. The brave men, living and dead who struggled here have consecrated it far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living rather to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us-that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion-that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain, that this nation under God shall have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people, by the people, for the people shall not perish from the earth."

Answer: Jefferson was charmed by his birds.

Explanation:

The same meaning of "Jefferson was so taken with his birds." is that Jefferson was charmed by his birds. This simply means that Jefferson was really attracted and pleased with the birds.

Being worried or taking the birds everywhere doesn't give the same meaning as taken with the birds. Therefore, the correct option is B.
