6. Which of the following sentences contains an abstract noun?
A. They did a good job planning the party.
B. Respect must be earned.
C. She thought we should have left earlier.
D. I hope that we are not late.
I think it is B because the word respect can not be seen,heard,touched, smelled or felt.
You can usually draw a picture of or smell or hear a concrete noun. Which of the nouns cannot be seen or smelled or heard? That is the one that is an abstract noun.
I think it might be D
Which noun in D is an abstract noun?
Could you please help me I am stuck on this question.
Hope
Study this site. After you do that, I'm sure you'll get the answer.

In that sentence, hope is a verb.
Abstract nouns are also respect and good?
Yay! You've got it. The abstract noun is "respect."
Good is an adjective.
Thank you so much Ms.Sue for helping me.
You're very welcome, Sarah.
Last night, Lucy and Neil met Morey in Gramercy Park.
11. The object of the verb is
A. Gramercy Park.
B. Morey.
C. Lucy and Neil.
D. night.
I think it's B because Morey is the object of the verb.
Objects of verbs are never in prepositional phrases.
What do you think the object of the verb is?
12. Which sentence contains an incorrect plural?
A. We spotted the foxs late in the afternoon.
B. The parties ended around midnight.
C. If wishes were horses, beggars would ride.
D. I hate traffic delays.
You should have learned this in about 3rd or 4th grade.
What do you think the answer is?
I think the object of the verb is Gramercy Park.
I think the incorrect plural would be in sentence A or D.
I don't know I think it's either A or C.
11. B - Which you had right the first time.
12. A - Because "foxs" is the incorrect plural. The correct way would be "foxes".
Brady is right.
Sorry -- but I didn't see your first answer for 11.
That's okay.
13. Which of the following sentences contains a verb in the simple past tense?
A. Jenna has driven this route multiple times.
B. I was working overtime for about six months.
C. She would like to join us.
D. We helped Joan to pack her things.
I think it is A because of the word driven.
But, A has a helping verb -- "has." It's not a simple past tense.

I think it is D because after the word we their is no helping verb.It is just "we helped".
I agree with you for D.
Yes, D is correct.
15. What is the adjective in the sentence "The red truck was parked behind the garage"?
A. parked
B. red
C. truck
D. behind
I think it is B red because I asked myself what truck was parked behind the garage?
And your answer is?
Remember that adjectives describe nouns and pronouns. They tell which, what kind of, and how many.
Red is correct.
B is correct. An adjective described things, and red is a word that describes. It's describing the truck, so that is an adjective. So, B is the correct answer to this question.
Yes, B. Truck is the noun that's being described.
Thank you Brady!
