<p>So here are three questions that I got wrong, and don't really understand. Anyone care to help me understand why they're wrong? Thanks!!</p>
<p>First two are simply matters of improper idioms. They should be “condemn as” and “from having.” </p>
<p>The last one I’m not 100% confident about, but I’m gonna go with C. Choices B and D commit the same error as the original, dangling modifiers. So that leaves choices C and E. Choice E is wordy and doesn’t really make sense so C seems to be the best answer.</p>
<p>1 - D. not idiomatically correct
2 - D. you can’t have boredom at something lol. not idiomatically correct
3 - C. weird question</p>
<p>Gahh. I’ll need to get these idioms down. Does anybody know where I can memorize idioms (or if it’s even helpful to do so)?</p>
<p>Also the correct answer to the second question is B. :/</p>
<p>I’m assuming it’s because the correct idiom is “tendency to” and the phrase should be “tendency to change” but why are we changing it from “of changing” to “to change?”</p>
<p>wait, is 10 c? It sounds awkward</p>
<p>Taken from the god of grammar, Silverturtle, himself:</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Don’t feel too bad for getting this one wrong though, CB gave it a 5 on a difficulty scale of 1 to 5.</p>
<p>so im sure about the first one. i think the second one is D and the third one is D or C. idk for the last one. but is the second one D? im seeing mixed answers here. what about the third one?</p>
<p>Answers are</p>
<p>1: D
2: B
3: C</p>
<p>the last one is way too awkward.</p>
