<h3>A:Pennies Worth Thousands
.</h3>
Explanation:
The author in this paragraph is talking about copper pennies which were minted during a time when copper was very limited due to World War II and pennies which were mistakenly doubled stamped in 1955.
It talks about how only few copper pennies were minted in 1943 due to need of coppers in World War II. Today it has become very rare to see copper pennies minted in 1943 as pennies were mostly minted out of steel during that time. The price for these copper pennies minted in 1943 as well as the 1955 double die penny, pennies which were mistakenly double stamped, are as high as $25,000 because of its interesting history and rarity.
Thus, the title "Pennies Worth Thousands" is the best title for this paragraph as these pennies can fetch thousands of dollars for a single penny.
Answer: C. preposition: during; object of the preposition: thunderstorm
Prepositions are words that introduce facts or information to the reader. It can state where something takes place, when or why something takes place, or general descriptive information.
Object of the preposition is needed because a preposition don't stand on its own. Preposition and object of the preposition are grouped together as a prepositional phrase. This phrase begins with the preposition and ends with a noun which is the object of preposition.
In the above sentence, the prepositional phrase is:
during the loud thunderstorm.
"during" is the preposition because it gives information on when something takes place
"thunderstorm" is the object of preposition because it is the noun in the prepositional phrase.
