Answer 2

Answer 3

I think the answer would be a because it describes the cricket and cricket is the noun

Answer 4

@Jadeishere

Answer 5

Um, it describes where the cricket is.
An adjective phrase is something that directly describes the noun. B is actually a prepositional phrase

Answer 6

and c is the noun ....

Answer 7

so answer?

Answer 8

The subject may actually be the subject, so "its evening song" may be the answer. :)
Ahhh

Answer 9

I think this is a very weird sentence to ask for an adjective phrase because there almost isn't one

Answer 10

but d describes the verb....not the noun

Answer 11

it would be d if they were asking for an adverb phrase

Answer 12

Answer 13

Answer 14

Answer 15

Answer 17

That is true, the evening song is also a thing, and Idea so this sentence challenges it. Remember, it doesn't have to just describe the cricket itself as in color, size or shape, as long as it describes something about the cricket its fine, I would try to make up arguments for why they cannot be used and pick the one with the least arguments.

Answer 18

I suggest A as well, but it's weird

Answer 19

I would have to agree with A as well, the song is an Idea, cricket is a thing, and singing is a verb

Answer 20

mhmm, I don't know if above is an adjective
