Question

day 2
circle the correct subordinating or coordinating conjunction.

1. i am neither surprised (but, nor) upset that you didnt go out for hockey.
2. orlando will only go to practice (if, because) you dont go.
3. mom only went to pta meetings (but, for) her childrens grades.
4. i will wash the dishes (since, unless) you made dinner.

Explanation:

1. The correlative conjunction pair "neither...nor" is the standard grammatical structure for negative alternatives.
2. The sentence sets a condition for Orlando going to practice, so "if" (a subordinating conjunction for conditions) is correct.
3. "For" functions as a coordinating conjunction here to explain the reason for Mom's action.
4. The sentence states a reason for washing dishes, so "since" (a subordinating conjunction for cause/reason) is appropriate.

Answer:

1. nor
2. if
3. for
4. since
