Read the introduction to miguel’s personal narrative, “the baby birds.” i decided to ride my skateboard to school this morning. as i onto bryce road, i saw the parkers’ cat crouched under a tree, hissing at something on the ground. approaching the cat, i noticed that a nest full of tiny birds was on the ground; it must have fallen from a branch. i shooed the cat away and my older stepbrother, a veterinarian, because he would know just how to them. which words correctly fill in the blanks?

turned, called

turned, was calling

turn, calling

turn, call

A: turned, called

Explanation:

 The words turned  and called  correctly fill in the blanks because the narrative is describing an experience that the author had . All the actions must follow the same tense of the verb, having consistency and verb agreement. First he "decided to ride...", and  "As [he] turned onto...{he] saw...noticed..shooed and called." All the verbs express actions in the past.

b. failure at least that one seems the most negative out of all of the answers provided pls correct me if i'm wrong. : ))

- free verse.

- " in poetry, one of the best ways to practice technique is to write in. i want all to be unstressed so that “all the clocks” and “in the night” are matching anapests. many forms that sharpen skills are useful in free verse."
