Answer (1)
Let's break down each of the sentences step-by-step to understand which words need to be underlined and circled.
Sujata works swiftly.
Verbs are words that show action or state of being. In this sentence, 'works' is the action that Sujata is doing, so it's the verb. Therefore, we underline 'works'.
Adverbs are words that modify verbs, adjectives, or other adverbs, often ending in '-ly'. Here, 'swiftly' describes how Sujata works, making it the adverb. We should circle 'swiftly'.
The shoes are under the bed.
Nouns are words that represent people, places, things, or ideas. 'Shoes' and 'bed' are the things in this sentence, but typically, the focus is on the subject noun. So, in this context, we underline 'shoes'.
Prepositions are words used before nouns or pronouns to show their relationship with other words in the sentence. 'Under' shows the position of the shoes relative to the bed, so we circle 'under'.
Roja is a beautiful and smart girl.
Nouns again are people, places, things, or ideas. 'Roja' is a proper noun as it is a name, and 'girl' is also a noun, so we can underline either depending on what the teacher expects. Generally, the subject is underlined, so we underline 'Roja'.
Conjunctions are words that connect other words, phrases, or clauses. 'And' connects 'beautiful' and 'smart,' so we circle 'and'.
By following these steps, you can identify and mark the verbs, adverbs, nouns, and conjunctions in each sentence correctly.
