Question

select the correct answer.
which sentence uses a prepositional phrase to convey how bertha would like to live?
a. she would like to live with more freedom.
b. she would like to live anywhere she can.
c. she would like to live with more rules.
d. she would like to live more adventurously.

Explanation:

To determine the correct answer, we analyze each option for prepositional phrases and their relevance to conveying how Bertha would like to live. A prepositional phrase begins with a preposition.

• Option A: "with more freedom" is a prepositional phrase (preposition "with") and conveys a way of living (with freedom).
• Option B: "anywhere she can" is an adverbial clause, not a prepositional phrase.
• Option C: "with more rules" is a prepositional phrase, but typically "more rules" would imply a restrictive way, and the context of the question (likely from a text about Bertha's desire for freedom, like in "The Story of an Hour" or similar) makes A more appropriate.
• Option D: "more adventurously" is an adverb, not a prepositional phrase.

So, Option A uses a prepositional phrase to convey how Bertha would like to live (with more freedom).

Answer:

A. She would like to live with more freedom.
