Hi guys, can someone help me with three questions?

1. Which word best completes the sentence?

I am going to ___ my chemistry teacher to learn more about careers in science.

a. investigate
b. discover
c. interview
d. evaluate

Is it d or c? Or neither?

2. Which of the following sentences contains an action verb?

a. Brad looks upset today.
b. Brad drove to the zoo with us.
c. The animals seem very active today.
d. Our friend appears happy now.

Is it d?

3. Which of the following sentences contains a linking verb?

a. Mateo became upset with me today.
b. I took his last cupcake without permission.
c. He wanted to eat it this afternoon.
d. I bought him a new one as a surprise.

Is it a?

Thanks!

Is the 2nd one a? I don't think it's c.

Look. I know what the answer is. I'm just giving you a hard time. XD

Sure, I can help you with these questions!

1. To determine which word best completes the sentence, you need to understand the context and meaning of the sentence. In this case, the sentence is "I am going to ___ my chemistry teacher to learn more about careers in science." The word that best fits here is "interview." By interviewing your chemistry teacher, you can gather information about careers in science. Therefore, the answer is "c. interview."

2. To find the sentence that contains an action verb, you should identify the verb in each sentence and determine if it represents an action. In this case, the sentence "Brad drove to the zoo with us" contains the action verb "drove," which shows the action of Brad driving. Therefore, the answer is "b. Brad drove to the zoo with us."

3. To identify the sentence that contains a linking verb, you need to determine if there is a verb that connects the subject with a noun or an adjective. In this case, the sentence "Mateo became upset with me today" contains the linking verb "became," which connects the subject Mateo with the adjective upset. Therefore, the answer is "a. Mateo became upset with me today."

So, the correct answers to the questions are:
1. c. interview
2. b. Brad drove to the zoo with us.
3. a. Mateo became upset with me today.

I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any further questions.

1 and 3 are correct.

For 2, in which sentence is the subject DOING the action of the verb?

You are correct on #3. Rethink #2. Look up the words in #1.

No, it is not a. You've had two guesses, so you are on your own now. Think about which verb is about DOING some ACTION.
