What is an example of furthermore?
I can give you several sentences.
- "Furthermore," he added, "I propose that we elect John as club president."
- This is a sentence; furthermore, it is an example sentence.
- The old house was dark and spooky; furthermore, I thought I heard someone whispering in the corner.
What are words to use instead of 'are'?
There are not a lot of words to use instead of are, except other forms of "to be"--is, was, were. Normally you have to rewrite the sentence to find a more active verb. For example, my answer could be rewritten like this:
Very few words exist that can replace are. Now the verbs in the sentence are "exist" and "replace."
Sometimes it's difficult to avoid are, just like I did. I could rewrite the sentence again: Now I have used the verbs "exist" and "replace" instead of the "are."
As long as you use mainly active verbs, an occasion are will not hurt your writing.

Best way to revise for a math test?
The best way to revise for maths is to simply make a start at looking through your excersise book and write down all of the stuff that you are unsure of and spend most time practising that. You could even write some questions down for you to answer! - but remember it's an exam!
You should say "feel bad" if you are talking about feeling sad, remorseful, or physically unwell--where "bad" refers to your state. Feel is a linking verb in this context, and is used with the predicate adjective bad rather than the adverb badly. The only sense in which "feel badly" is correct is if you are using feel as an action verb. For example, if you have nerve damage and have lost most sensation in your fingers, you probably feel badly (just as you would probably play the piano badly in that condition).
Cluster means to start with a word, then add associated word to the word.
How do you revise written work?
You first read your work and take notes on things that need to be taken out or edited. All author revise different ways, but here are a few suggestions from the pros:
- DO NOT read your book and begin revising right after you have completed your work. You must first wait a week until the brainstorms and excitement clears. It is natural for you to be excited especially if this is your first finished novel.
- Grab a pen. Now. You WILL need to edit things. Even if you think things are fine the way they are, your editor may not be so confident.
- You read through your work while with your pen that you got in suggestion two and circle things that need to be taken out, edited, or needs more detail.
- Repeat all three steps at least three times. There is always mistakes or tiny areas that need work, even in a published novel. No novel is perfect, but you want to get as close as possible.
There are different meanings but the main two are: no fear = heck no. And screaming no fear before doing something completely stupid. Remember, there is no such thing as "no fear" fear can only be controlled.
Which is Correct Grammar ---to feel bad or to feel badly?
Badly is an adverb of the word feel so that is the correct word to use. Remember the old rule? LY words are adverbs. They describe verb words.
- She is lovely.
- My mother feels lonely.
- What made my cat so sickly?
The word bad describes the state of something or someone being a bad person or thing.
- Jon is a bad boy because he does not like his new home.
- He is not always bad, but his parents moved from Hawaii to Minnesota.

What are the five steps in the process of writing a essay?
E.Asking a question; refining a question; finding, evaluating, and interpreting source material; compiling and organizing information; and synthesizing information and drawing conclusions.
Just get your thoughts down first. You should focus on editing grammar and spelling until after the 2nd draft, at least. By then, you usually have everything in the right place, and are happy with the major details. Then you can freely focus on the small things. Doing major and minor edits usually don't mix well. Alwayscheck it at the end!
