According to the prefix "pre-", which of the following words defines "preliminary"?

Choice B is the correct answer because it contains a dangling modifier, which is a type of misplaced modifier.

A dangling modifier occurs when a modifying phrase or clause in a sentence does not clearly and logically modify any specific word or phrase in the sentence. It "dangles" without a clear connection to the intended subject.

In Choice B, the phrase "that needed paint" is the dangling modifier. It is intended to modify either the old truck or the garage, but it is not clear which one. The sentence structure suggests that the truck is the one that needs paint, but the modifier is placed immediately after the word "garage," creating confusion.

C is the correct spelling of the word foreseeable.

In Option A, the em dash is used to set off the list of tools (hammers, saws, chisels) from the main part of the sentence. The em dash indicates a stronger break than a comma and helps to provide clarity and emphasis on the list of tools the carpenter must use. The sentence is correctly punctuated, and the tools are appropriately separated by the em dash.

Preliminary is what comes first and hence best shows the introductory parts.

B shows both the simple and complex sides of organic gardening, which is exactly the correct support for the given thesis.

The plural of words ending with “f” are usually replaced with “ves” at the end, making the C the correct answer.

The statement used in Dis more correct as it explains the connection between the action in the sentence and the resulting outcome.
It also applies expanded form of sentences making it more formal.

A thesis statement is a concise summary of the main point or argument that an essay or academic paper will focus on. It presents a claim or perspective that the author intends to support and explore throughout the writing.

Among the provided choices, "Choice C: Maori culture should receive more emphasis in the history curriculum of New Zealand schools" can be considered a thesis statement.

Who’s is the right replacement for whose because it shows “who is” responsible for something, which fits perfectly into the sentence.

The word “wow” can certainly be marked as an interjection as the word is in useto show the emotion of “surprise” of the speaker about the ability of the addressed person to qualify the hurdle in the first attempt.
