In which sentence are the "conjunctions" used correctly?

1) Either Fred nor John knew about the accident.
2) The top award was given to neither Steve or Jim.
3 Neither beauty nor popularity was considered in the contest.
4) Mary enjoyed neither rooler skating or ice skating.
I think the answer is #3 neither/nor.

You're right. Neither goes with nor. Either goes with or.

Choose the sentence that has a subject complement.

1) The nurse felt my pulse.
2) I felt much better.
3) The day ended with many surprises.
4) We can't leave without seeing her.

This one I have a problem with. I think it is #2 - I felt much better. I think all of them have a complete thought?

See above.

You are correct! Sentence #3, "Neither beauty nor popularity was considered in the contest," uses the conjunctions "neither" and "nor" correctly. In this sentence, "neither" is used to present two negative options, and "nor" is used to join those options in a parallel structure.

To find the correct answer, you can examine each sentence and identify if the conjunctions "either/or" or "neither/nor" are used correctly. Let's review the other sentences to better understand why they are incorrect:

1) "Either Fred nor John knew about the accident." This sentence is incorrect because the conjunction "either" should be used with "or" to present two options. The correct way to phrase it would be "Either Fred or John knew about the accident."

2) "The top award was given to neither Steve or Jim." This sentence is also incorrect because the word "neither" requires the use of "nor" to join the negative options correctly. The correct way to phrase it would be "The top award was given to neither Steve nor Jim."

4) "Mary enjoyed neither roller skating or ice skating." This sentence is incorrect because "neither" should be followed by a negative form of the verb without the use of "or." The correct way to phrase it would be "Mary enjoyed neither roller skating nor ice skating."

So, in conclusion, sentence #3 is the only one that uses the conjunctions "neither" and "nor" correctly.
