in which sentence is the complete predicate underlined
Answer:
D. In the 1800s, there was a revival of interest in Bach's music.
Explanation:
A predicate is known as the part of a sentence which actually reveals what the subject is doing or who the subject is. The predicate is all that is in a sentence that is not the subject.
In a sentence, we can have two halves: the complete subject and the complete predicate. The complete subject tells about the person, thing, place or idea that is doing the action or that is being. While the complete predicate actually includes the verb and that is happening to the subject.
From the selected answer, we will discover that "In the 1800s" is the subject while "was a revival of interest in Bach's music" is the predicate. The predicate here tells of what happened to the subject, "In the 1800s".

Explain how the writer creates an atmosphere of shock and confusion here. Include two quotes from these lines in your answer.
Pan sat up and blinked, and then there was a soft thud, and the net man
fell choking and gasping right across Lyra, who cried out in horror: that was blood
gushing out of him! Running feet, and someone hauled the man away and bent over
him; then other hands lifted Lyra, a knife snicked and pulled and the net strings fell
away one by one, and she tore them off, spitting, and hurled herself down to cuddle
Pan. Kneeling, she twisted to look up at the newcomers.
Answer:
The author instills shock and confusion into this passage by adding moments of uncertainty, such as "Pan sat up and blinked". This can influence the reader to wonder what happened to shock Pan. To reinforce these elements, the author quickly jumps into the scene, writing "...Lyra, who cried out in horror: that was blood gushing out of him!" The fast unfolding of the events may startle and and bewilder the reader.

From "The Tyranny of Things" by Elizabeth Morris
Once upon a time, when I was very tired, I chanced to go away to a little house by the sea. "It is empty," they said, "but you can easily furnish it." Empty! Yes, thank Heaven! Furnish it? Heaven forbid! Its floors were bare, its walls were bare, its tables there were only two in the house were bare. There was nothing in the closets but books; nothing in the bureau drawers but the smell of clean, fresh wood; nothing in the kitchen but an oil stove, and a few a very few dishes; nothing in the attic but rafters and sunshine, and a view of the sea. After I had been there an hour there descended upon me a great peace, a sense of freedom, of in finite leisure. In the twilight I sat before the flickering embers of the open fire, and looked out through the open door to the sea, and asked myself, "Why?" Then the answer came: I was emancipated from things. There was nothing in the house to demand care, to claim attention, to cumber my consciousness with its insistent, unchanging companionship. There was nothing but a shelter, and outside, the fields and marshes, the shore and the sea. These did not have to be taken down and put up and arranged and dusted and cared for. They were not things at all, they were powers, presences.
And so I rested. While the spell was still unbroken, I came away. For broken it would have been, I know, had I not fled first. Even in this refuge the enemy would have pursued me, found me out, encompassed me.
If we could but free ourselves once for all, how simple life might become! One of my friends, who, with six young children and only one servant, keeps a spotless house and a soul serene, told me once how she did it. "My dear, once a month I give away every single thing in the house that we do not imperatively need. It sounds wasteful, but I don’t believe it really is. Sometimes Jeremiah mourns over missing old clothes, or back numbers of the magazines, but I tell him if he doesn’t want to be mated to a gibbering maniac he will let me do as I like."
The old monks knew all this very well. One wonders sometimes how they got their power; but go up to Fiesole, and sit a while in one of those little, bare, white-walled cells, and you will begin to understand. If there were any spiritual force in one, it would have to come out there.
I have not their courage, and I win no such freedom. I allow myself to be overwhelmed by the invading host of things, making fitful resistance, but without any real steadiness of purpose. Yet never do I wholly give up the struggle, and in my heart, I cherish an ideal, remotely typified by that empty little house beside the sea.
Which of the following words from the excerpt identify what Morris values more than things?
Choose one answer from each group. Type the LETTER ONLY for each answer in the correct blank.
Type B, C, or D for Blank 1.
B. Resistance
C. Magazines
D. Freedom
Type E, F, or G for Blank 2.
E. Peace
F. Attention
G. Demand
Type H, I, or J for Blank 3.
H. Struggle
I. Embers
J. Leisure
The things Morris values the most are Freedom, Peace and Struggle.
This can be seen by reading the text above, where Morris says that the empty house by the sea promotes a great peace for her. Emptiness is pacifying in her life and this peace allows her to feel free and happy.
Peace and freedom are things she values above all things and that's why she shows how the monks and her friend are wise to be detached from material things.
However, she likes to live in the struggle that the accumulation of things promotes. At the end of the text, she says that she enjoys this fight and that's why she can't let go of everything.
In this case, we can say that freedom, peace and struggle are the things she values.
It is important to note that "The Tyranny of Things" is an essay written by Elisabeth Woodbridge Morris where she explores the dangers of consumerism that is so ingrained in our society.
