Question 4 of 5
Which of the following sentences is likely to be found in a descriptive passage about a county fair?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A because it vividly describes a typical scene at a county fair, mentioning a specific attraction, the Ferris wheel, and setting the ambiance by mentioning the night sky. This creates a vivid image for the reader, capturing the essence of a county fair. Choices B, C, and D do not specifically capture the essence of a county fair's descriptive passage, as they focus on different aspects such as suggestions for competitions and events happening around the fairgrounds, rather than painting a descriptive picture of the fair itself.
Question 5 of 5
Which of the following parts of speech describes the word 'incredibly' as used in the sentence: 'The pumpkin crop was incredibly small this year because of excessive rain in the spring and heat in the summer'?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: In the sentence provided, 'incredibly' is used to modify the adjective 'small,' indicating the degree of smallness. Adverbs can modify verbs, adjectives, or other adverbs. In this context, 'incredibly' functions as an adverb by providing more information on the extent of the adjective 'small.' Therefore, the correct answer is 'adverb.' Adverbs answer questions like 'how,' 'when,' 'where,' 'why,' or 'to what extent' and can modify adjectives to provide more detail or context. In this case, 'incredibly' modifies 'small,' demonstrating the degree of smallness, making it an adverb in this sentence.
