Worrier cat lover can you tell me all of the answers plz?
To combine the two sentences using a present participle, you need to create a phrase that starts with a present participle and describes the action taking place while introducing the second action. Analyzing the options:
A: This option doesn't use a present participle. Instead, it has two independent clauses separated by a comma and a coordinating conjunction.
B: This is the correct answer. It begins with the present participle "Kissing" and combines the two actions in a concise manner.
C: This option uses a past tense verb ("kissed") instead of a present participle. It also introduces the second action with a prepositional phrase rather than using a participle.
D: This option uses a past tense verb ("kissed") instead of a present participle. It also reverses the order of the actions and doesn't create a clear link between the two.
Therefore, the correct answer is B: "Kissing my grandmother goodbye, I promised I would visit soon."
