What kind of phrase is "a former drug-addict"? Sam Smith, a former drug-addict who recently spoke to the youth group, excels at motivating young people. Options: prepositional phrase participial phrase appositive phrase gerund phrase infinitive phrase absolute phrase

Answer:

Appositive phrase

Explanation:

In the text presented in the question aciama, the clause "a former drug-addict" is an appositive phrase. Appositive phrase is a type of clause that aims to explain something, or bring extra information, about the previously mentioned term, which is usually a pronoun or a noun. As we can see in the text presented above, the clause "a former drug-addict" has been added in the text, to show extra information about "Sam Smith," which was quoted earlier.

However, we must emphasize that the text has a grammatical error. This is because every appositive phrase must be written in the middle of two commas and the text is not showing this.

7 Question Reading Strategy
Good Idea!
Whenever you read something new you should apply reading strategies to that work so that you can be sure you really learn it! This is just one example!

As we read through this chapter, we are going to practice a reading strategy that will help you process your thoughts as you read. The first two questions on the worksheet need to be answered before you begin reading. Questions three through five are to be answered while reading. The last two questions should be answered after you are done reading. As there is not necessarily a correct response to the worksheet, you will do it on your own. You will be asked to write a reflective paragraph about the activity at the end of the lesson, so work carefully.

In this chapter, we have met Toulouse-Lautrec. Vincent van Gogh is very attracted to his boisterous personality, and we see that van Gogh is extremely shy when going to his meetings in his salon. We see as the chapter progresses though, that van Gogh comes out of his shell a great deal, and ends up being much more comfortable with the other artists.

When we came into this chapter, it seemed as though Vincent may not be successful as a “trained” artist since he struggled so much in his art class. This may have impacted your prediction somewhat. As the chapter goes on, we see a lot of highs and lows from Vincent’s behavior. When he is painting the river Seine, he is animated and excited. When he is drinking too much, and after he has worn out his stay, he seems to be miserable and depressed.

One thing is sure, after he has experienced this time in Paris, he has grown a great deal as an artist. We still do not know at this point, however, if he will achieve success, in whatever manner he defines it.
