Homework Help: Com155

Posted by Ben on Monday, April 4, 2011 at 8:59pm.

Could you please help me locate the adjectives and adverbs in the below paragraph?

”Blending state of the art animation with live action, Hop is a comedy about E.B., the teenage son of the Easter Bunny. On the eve of taking over the family business, E.B. leaves for Hollywood in pursuit of his dream of becoming a drummer. He encounters Fred, an out-of-work slacker with his own lofty goals, who accidentally hits E.B. with his car. Feigning injury, E.B. manipulates Fred into providing him shelter, and Fred finds himself with the world's worst houseguest.”

To get you started in the first sentence --

live, adj., modifies action
teenage, adj., modifies son

Study these sites to find the adverbs and other adjectives. Note: I only see
two adverbs in this paragraph.

Are they family and accidentally

In this paragraph, "family" is an adjective modifying business.

"Accidentally" is an adverb.

I think "world's" is used as an adverb, modifying "worst."

Did you find the other adjectives?
