Answer 3

Okay, can you tell me what the subject is?

Answer 4

Deepest Canyon

Answer 5

Well is would just be canyon and you'll want to use the first time it appears because the second is just reiteration. So we know that it is either A or D because canyon is being modified.

Answer 6

Can you tell me id "is not" or "in the desert" does more to further describe the canyon to you?

Answer 7

i dont know

Answer 8

Well if I was giving you directions to find this canyon, would it be easier for you to find if I said "The canyon is not the deepest in the world." or "The canyon in the desert."

Desert would most likely narrow it down more. So you would want that.
