Which sentence contains an action verb?
a. the skiers were happy about their accomplishments.
b. new skiers sometimes are nervous.
c. some skiers think very highly of their sport.
d. good skiers appear in control

Hello there

Action verbs, also called dynamic verbs, express an action.

Options A and B would not work because they are using to be verb, wich is a linking verb. its main fonction is link the subject with the adjective (happy and nervous)

Options D Y C would work, but option D is using a verb another possible linking verb.

Therefore, correct answer is C. THINK a totally action verb, it represents an effort.

Hope this helps

i’m writing a memoir and i’ve been given the great suggestion of placing a ‘sub-narrative’ within some of the chapters – sort of, what was going on with me in the grand scheme of things.

i was wondering how to format this so that it is very obvious we are stepping out the of story.

firstly is a change in font from serif to sans workable? i also use dashes for a scene change. was thinking of using a different scene-changer too.

here’s a (shortened) example:

university – or what’s known as ‘uni’ in australia – were some of the best days of my life. where else do you get to potter around in a great location, have very little responsibility, learn lots of things, do lots of things and walk out four years later with a bonus – a degree!

with my university years i had immersed myself into community of intelligent ambitious people. generally everyone had a confidence about themselves. they knew where they were going in life and weren’t threatened by others.

next normal paragraph continues here…

(sorry couldn’t show the fonts in this comment field)

too much?
