Which best describes the tone shared by "A Psalm of Life" and "Auspex"? a) mournful
b) energetic
c) serious
d) regretful.

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).

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

n arraignment is not a hearing to determine guilt or innocence. it is usually a criminal defendant's first appearance in court
