Sky View Preposition Practice.

A prepositional phrase always begins with a preposition and ends with a noun or a pronoun. In this case, the correct answer is "pronoun" because a prepositional phrase can end with a pronoun as well.

The correct answer is "The table was filled (with food) (from different countries)." This answer correctly identifies that the table was filled with food from different countries. The other options either incorrectly place the emphasis on the table being filled or the food coming from different countries.

The correct answer is "Pears range (in texture) (from smoothness) (to grittiness)." This answer correctly identifies the different textures that pears can have, ranging from smoothness to grittiness.

The word "but" is only a preposition when it can be substituted with the word "except". In all other cases, "but" functions as a conjunction.

When the word "to" is followed directly by a verb, it forms an infinitive phrase. In this case, the phrase "to sing" is an infinitive phrase because "to" is followed by the verb "sing." Infinitive phrases are commonly used to express purpose or intention, and they can function as nouns, adjectives, or adverbs in a sentence.

The correct answer is "A bunch (of Indian corn) hung (beside the front door)." This answer correctly identifies "A bunch" as the subject of the sentence and "hung" as the verb. It also correctly identifies "of Indian corn" as the prepositional phrase that modifies "bunch" and "beside the front door" as the prepositional phrase that indicates where the bunch of corn was hung.

The word "for" is a conjunction, not a preposition, when it can be substituted with the word "because". In this context, "for" is used to indicate the reason or cause of something, which is the same function as the word "because". Both words introduce a clause that explains why something is happening or why a certain action is being taken. Therefore, "because" is a suitable substitution for "for" in this case.

"down" modifies the verb "fell." There is no object.

The correct answer is "(After a while), Pete headed (toward town)." This answer correctly places the phrase "After a while" at the beginning of the sentence to indicate the passage of time. It also correctly separates the verb "headed" from the prepositional phrase "toward town" to show the direction in which Pete went.

"spring" and "summer" are compound objects.

"to do" and "to ride" are not prepositional phrases. They are infinitive verb phrases.

"In addition to" is a compound preposition.

The correct answer is "After school, we rode past Mr. Reed's house and waved." This answer correctly identifies the phrase "After school" as the introductory phrase, "rode past" as the action being performed, and "Mr. Reed's house" as the location being passed. The phrase "and waved" is connected to the action of riding past Mr. Reed's house.

The subject of the sentence is "I" because it is the person who performed the action of throwing the winning pass.

"according to" is a compound preposition

The given answer correctly states that the Earth travels 595 million miles around the sun in one year. This implies that the Earth completes one orbit around the sun in one year, covering a distance of 595 million miles.

The correct answer is: (On Tuesday), the meeting took place (at ten o'clock) (in a private area) (of the building).

This answer correctly identifies the chronological order of events by stating that the meeting took place on Tuesday. It also specifies the time of the meeting, which is ten o'clock. Additionally, it mentions that the meeting occurred in a private area of the building, indicating the location of the meeting.

A group of related words that does not include a verb for its subject is called a phrase. A phrase is a collection of words that functions as a single unit within a sentence, but it does not have a subject or a predicate. It can act as a noun, adjective, adverb, or preposition in a sentence. Unlike a clause, a phrase does not express a complete thought and cannot stand alone as a sentence. Therefore, the correct answer is phrase.

The correct answer is "All (of my fellow classmates) (but me) passed the Spanish test." This sentence correctly places the phrase "but me" after the phrase "of my fellow classmates," indicating that everyone except the speaker passed the Spanish test.

The correct answer is (On Friday) (during the game), everyone cheered (for our team) (except Jan). This answer is correct because it correctly identifies the chronological order of events and the subject of the sentence. It states that on Friday, during the game, everyone cheered for our team, with the exception of Jan.

The correct answer is "The poem written by Charley is about events from his childhood." This answer correctly identifies that the poem was written by Charley and that it is about events from his childhood. The other options either omit important information or rearrange the sentence structure in a way that changes the meaning.

"into" is an adverb here, modifying the verb "jump". "to be" is an infinitive verb phrase, not a prepositional phrase.

"around" is an adverb here answering "where" we "hang". "to see" is an infinitive verb phrase.

"Neither" is the singular indefinite pronoun that functions as the subject because "boys" is in a prepositional phrase.
