Understanding Sentence Structure

This section discusses how to identify the subject and verb in a sentence, and how to use conjunctions to form compound sentences.

Identifying Subject and Verb

• Before an empty space in a sentence, the word before it is the subject, while the word after it is the verb.

• After an empty space in a sentence, any words that follow are objects of prepositions. If there are two verbs and one subject before an empty space, then we need to use a conjunction to form a compound sentence.

Using Conjunctions

• When there are two verbs and one subject in a sentence, we only need a conjunction. In this case, "because" is the correct answer because the other options function as prepositions.

Identifying Parts of Speech

This section discusses how to identify parts of speech in sentences with missing words.

Identifying Prepositional Phrases

• Before an empty space in a sentence with a preposition, the word before it is the subject while any words after it are objects of prepositions.

Identifying Verbs

• The answer cannot be "Bean making" because it requires "has," "have," or "had." The answer cannot be "B" because "to be made" needs another preposition. The correct answer is "has been made," which is passive voice since the subject is non-human.

Using Prepositions Correctly

This section discusses how to use prepositions correctly in sentences with missing words.

Identifying Prepositions

• In a sentence with a preposition, any words that follow it are objects of prepositions.

Using Possessive Adjectives

• The correct answer is "eats" because it functions as a possessive adjective.

Understanding Quantifiers

This section discusses how to use quantifiers correctly in sentences with missing words.

Using Quantifiers

• When the word "only" is used, the maximum quantity is implied. Therefore, the correct answer for this question is "enough."

Identifying Nouns and Adjectives

This section discusses how to identify nouns and adjectives in sentences with missing words.

Identifying Nouns and Adjectives

• In a sentence with an empty space marked by commas, the correct answer will be an appositive or phrase that describes the previous noun.
