1. To determine which sentence contains a prepositional phrase acting as an adjective, we need to identify the prepositional phrase in each option. A prepositional phrase starts with a preposition (e.g., in, during, at) and includes an object (e.g., morning, bed, day).
Option A: "In the morning" is a prepositional phrase, but it functions as an adverb modifying the verb "rested."
Option B: "In the red package" is a prepositional phrase, and it acts as an adjective modifying the noun "cookies."
Option C: "During the day" is a prepositional phrase, but it functions as an adverb modifying the verb "plays."
Option D: "At dancing" is not a prepositional phrase, as it lacks a preposition.
Therefore, the correct answer is B, "We bought the cookies in the red package."
2. To determine the view that best represents a fatalist's perspective, we need to identify the statement that reflects the belief in the predetermined nature of events.
Option A: "Whatever will be, will be" suggests acceptance and that events are predetermined, aligning with a fatalist viewpoint.
Option B: "The best is yet to come" suggests optimism about the future and is not necessarily reflective of fatalism.
Option C: "We are still masters of our fate" implies that individuals have control over their own destiny, contradicting fatalism.
Option D: "You don't know what you have until it's gone" reflects regret and the realization of the value of things and is not indicative of fatalism.
Therefore, the correct answer is A, "Whatever will be, will be."
3. To find the line that best expresses the meaning of the word "resent," we need to understand the context and connotation.
Option A: "Suppose you try keeping still for five minutes" does not provide any indication of resent.
Option B: "Anne, dear, don't be such a baby" does not involve the concept of resent.
Option C: "You know we're going to forget how to dance...When we get out we won't remember a thing" does not express the meaning of resent.
Option D: "Who cares if it's dignified. I don't want to be dignified" does not relate to the concept of resent.
None of the given options express the meaning of "resent." You may need to consider alternative choices or refer to the specific context surrounding the word in the text.
4. To determine the sentence in which the word "bewildered" is used correctly in reference to The Diary of Anne Frank, we need to examine each option.
Option A: "Mr. Van Daan was bewildered as he took the food from storage" does not convey the appropriate use of "bewildered" in the context of the sentence.
Option B: "Bewildered to cats, Mr. Dussel hopes Peter's cat will stay away from him" does not effectively use "bewildered" to convey the intended meaning.
Option C: "Mrs. Frank was bewildered by Anne's negative attitude toward her" appropriately uses "bewildered" to indicate confusion or perplexity.
Option D: "Everyone was bewildered by the thoughtful presents Anne gave during Hanukkah" does not match the usage of "bewildered" in relation to the described situation.
Therefore, the correct answer is C, "Mrs. Frank was bewildered by Anne's negative attitude toward her."
Your answers are correct for questions 1 through 3, but for question 4, the correct answer is C, not D.
