Identify the sentence that uses the present tense correctly. a. my favorite relative is uncle georgie. b. during the coverage of a major hurricane, all the major news stations covered it continually. c. gloria is enjoying her new job. d. one of my friends has been out of town today.

The correct answer is option A) "My favorite relative is Uncle Georgie."

Explanation:

The only correct sentence that uses presente tense correctly is option A since it is using the verb "to be" in the present form.

Option B uses the past tense (covered)

Option C uses present continuos (is enjoying)

And option D is using present perfect tense (has been out)

the answer should be d) he was one of those young thousands who greeted the war with a certain amount of relief, welcoming the liberation from webs of tangled emotion" since it is the best option because it shows his desire to free himself. 

hope this answer you! have a great day.

the sentence does not violate the phrase structure second rule (introduced by noam chomsky) because noun phrases consist of a determiner such as a, the or every, and a noun. in the sentence, the noun phrase the cake includes a determiner (the) and a noun (cake).

on the other hand, the first rule indicates that a sentence encloses a noun phrase, followed by a verb phrase. the example sentence can be analysed as follows:

john (n) + ate (v) + the (det) + cake (n).
