“Never, I say, had a country so many openings to happiness as this. Her setting out in life, like the rising of a fair morning, was unclouded and promising. Her cause was good. Her principles just and liberal. Her temper serene and firm. Her conduct regulated by the nicest steps, and everything about her wore the mark of honor.”

Which statement best describes this excerpt?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Explanation:

The statement that best describes this excerpt is "Most of the sentences have a similar structure". Most of the sentences that integrate this excerpt have a similar structure because all of them, except for the first one, begin with the determiner "her". Moreover, most of them have a noun as head of the subject. For example, in sentences 3, 4, 5 and 6, the heads are "cause", "principles", "temper" and "conduct" respectively. Furthermore, most of the sentences have a subject complement. In the case of sentence 2, 3, 4 and 5, the subject complements are "unclouded and promising", "good", "just and liberal" and "serene and firm" respectively. Therefore, the structure of most of the sentences in this excerpt is Subject + Verb + Subject Complement.
