Question 2 If a dog hear a strange sound ,it A.Would bark B.braking C.brakes D Would have breaked Answer A dog's reaction to a strange sound depends on a variety of factors, such as the breed, previous training, and individual characteristics. However, the most likely response is that it would bark. This is a natural instinct for dogs when they hear unfamiliar sounds. Useful sources: 1. "Understanding Dog Behavior: Why Dogs Bark" by The Bark, The Bark, 16 Nov. 2020, www.thebark.com/content/understanding-dog-behavior-why-dogs-bark. 2. "Why Do Dogs Bark?" by American Kennel Club, American Kennel Club, www.akc.org/expert-advice/lifestyle/why-do-dogs-bark/. 3. "Factors Affecting Barking Behavior in Dogs" by National Center for Biotechnology Information, US National Library of Medicine, www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/26159937. According to the sources cited above, it is natural for dogs to bark in response to unknown or strange sounds. This behavior can be traced back to their ancestral roots as wild animals, where barking served as a means of communication and alerting the pack of potential danger. Additionally, barking can also be a sign of territorial or protective behavior, as dogs consider their human family as part of their pack. In terms of academic sources, a study published by the National Center for Biotechnology Information suggests that breed and age can also play a role in a dog's barking behavior. Certain breeds, such as guard dogs, are more likely to bark more frequently than others, while younger dogs tend to be more reactive and vocal. Furthermore, previous training and socialization can impact a dog's response to strange sounds. A well-trained dog who has been exposed to different sounds and environments may be calmer and less likely to bark at unfamiliar noises. In conclusion, while dogs' reactions to strange sounds may vary, it is safe to say that the most common response would be barking. This behavior is deeply ingrained in their nature and can also be influenced by factors such as breed, age, training, and socialization.

Lina started walking a mile every day, motivated to improve her health. Lina started walking, a mile every day, motivated to improve her health. Lina started walking, a mile every day motivated, to improve her health. Lina started walking, a mile every day motivated to improve her health. Answer The correct sentence that uses a comma to set off a participial phrase is "Lina started walking, a mile every day, motivated to improve her health." According to the Purdue Online Writing Lab (OWL), "a participial phrase is a group of words that includes a present or past participle and any modifiers, objects, and complements." In this case, the present participle is "walking" and the object is "a mile every day." The comma is used after "walking" to set off the phrase and before "a mile every day" to separate it from the rest of the sentence. This helps to clarify that "walking" is not the main action in the sentence, but rather the action that Lina is doing while motivated to improve her health. In the other options, the placement of the comma is incorrect. In "Lina started walking a mile every day, motivated to improve her health," there is no comma between "walking" and "a mile every day," making it unclear which phrase is being modified. In "Lina started walking, a mile every day motivated, to improve her health," the comma after "walking" separates the phrase from the rest of the sentence and creates a disjointed structure. Lastly, in "Lina started walking, a mile every day motivated to improve her health," the phrase "motivated to improve her health" is not set off by commas, which suggests that it is an essential part of the sentence rather than a modifying phrase. Overall, the correct placement of the comma in "Lina started walking, a mile every day, motivated to improve her health" follows the guidelines for using commas with participial phrases as outlined by the OWL. Question 5 Find all of the plural or possessive errors. Select each one and type it correctly.

To avoid such errors in writing, it is important to have a firm grasp on the rules of plural and possessive usage in English grammar. In conclusion, paying attention to plural and possessive usage is crucial in producing error-free written work. With the help of these sources and consistent practice, any college student can become proficient in using plural and possessive forms accurately.
