DAILY ANNOUNCEMENTS

November 6, 2009

 

Good morning Lake Braddock. Today is Monday, November 9 an odd day.

 

Identify the grammatically correct sentence. (A) Scenes from the everyday lives of African Americans, which are realistically depicted in the paintings of Henry Ossawa Tanner. (B) Scenes from the everyday lives of African Americans being realistically depicted in the paintings of Henry Ossawa Tanner. (C) The paintings of Henry Ossawa Tanner realistically depict scenes from the everyday lives of African Americans. (D) Henry Ossawa Tanner, in his realistic paintings, depicting scenes from the everyday lives of African Americans. (E) Henry Ossawa Tanner, whose paintings realistically depict scenes from the everyday lives of African Americans.

 

The answer to the SAT question of the day is: C -- For a sentence to be grammatically complete, it must include both a subject and a main verb. When a sentence lacks either a subject or a main verb, the result is a sentence fragment. In this example all options but (C) are sentence fragments. (C) is the only choice in which a subject ("The paintings of Henry Ossawa Tanner") is combined with a verb ("depict") to express a complete thought.

All students: Help the French Club celebrate National French Week. Today's theme is sports, games, and traditions. The trivia clue is: This Algerian-born French-speaker famously head-butted one of his Italian opponents at the 2006 World Cup. Friday's answer for the artist known for painting ballerinas was Edgar Degas. (edgar day-gah) If you want to answer today's question: Write your full name and your answer on a piece of paper, and put it in the drop box outside of Miss Purcell's room, C206, before 3rd period.
