When Second Class passenger Lawrence Bessley heard that they were getting the rockets, he knew what that meant. What did that mean?

you need to know what you have learned: )

the sentence does not violate the phrase structure second rule (introduced by noam chomsky) because noun phrases consist of a determiner such as a, the or every, and a noun. in the sentence, the noun phrase the cake includes a determiner (the) and a noun (cake).

on the other hand, the first rule indicates that a sentence encloses a noun phrase, followed by a verb phrase. the example sentence can be analysed as follows:

john (n) + ate (v) + the (det) + cake (n).

the answer would be yes because the basket is full.

3 is blunder, i’m not sure about the last one but the first two look correct
