2

<ol>
<li>for portraying or her portrayal of</li>
<li>that make
Physical properties… make</li>
</ol>

<p>I’m not sure on what choice C is for number 2. It only has three choices…</p>

3

<p>For #3 “that makes” is modifying “physical properties” not “a diamond”. Btw you are missing an answer choice for #2.</p>

<p>edit: nvm guess I was wrong about #3.</p>

4

<p>Sorry there was a mistake in number 2
But i want explanations for the questions; I know their answers.</p>

5

<ol>
<li>For her portrayal because it has to be a noun.</li>
<li>Which answer did you pick? I really don’t see anything wrong with the sentence. C is correct because it is saying that the flavor of a Meyer lemon is less acidic than that of a common lemon.</li>
<li>Physical properties…make
Subject verb agreement.</li>
</ol>

<p>Thanks @JefferyJung
and btw regarding #2 and choice D, is in it supposed to be (more edible)?</p>

<p>How can something be more edible?</p>

<p>It’s either edible or inedible.</p>

<p>Is sofa more edible than a book?
I’m not sure… haha</p>

8

<p>Oh ok i understood
Excuse my lack of knowledge
I am an international student so sometimes I face troubles in some of the sentences.</p>

<p>Yea like what jefferyjung said edible is one of those absolute words. Another one is “unique”. Something can’t be more unique than another </p>

<p>Hope this helps!</p>

<p>I understand your difficulties. I had trouble learning certain things in the foreign language I took, Spanish, and Spanish is way easier to learn than English. Good luck on the test!</p>
