Identify the underlined word(s) in the sentence below:

“the instructor of the beauty training school had to lop off these soggy clumps to make my hair even again.”

a) prepositional phrase
b) infinitive phrase
c) independent clause
d) gerund phrase

is that the whole question?

the correct answer is a "it describes nora and mrs. linde's relationship". opcions b and d are not related to the content of the passage in any way. option c could be appropiate but it does not fully capture the effect of the dialogue, while option a is quite appropiate, since the dialogue not only exemplifies the relationship between the characters, but it also captures the effect in the excerpt. we get to know that mrs linde bosses around and already knows nora.
