Let's solve each scrambled sentence by rearranging the words into a grammatically correct and meaningful sentence. We'll go step by step.
---
1) his / friend / fair / to / the / went / Ken / and
- Identify the subject: "Ken" and "his friend" — these are two people.
- The verb is "went".
- The destination is "to the fair".
- So, the sentence should be:
Ken and his friend went to the fair.
✔ Final sentence:
Ken and his friend went to the fair.
---
2) popcorn / funnel cake / Ken / ate / a / and
- Subject: "Ken"
- Verb: "ate"
- Objects: "a popcorn" and "a funnel cake"? Wait — we have "popcorn" and "funnel cake", both nouns.
- But note: "a" is used before "funnel cake", so it’s "a funnel cake". But "popcorn" is uncountable here, so we don’t use "a" with it.
- So: Ken ate popcorn and a funnel cake.
✔ Final sentence:
Ken ate popcorn and a funnel cake.
---
3) lemonade / His / drank / friend
- Subject: "His friend"
- Verb: "drank"
- Object: "lemonade"
- So: His friend drank lemonade.
✔ Final sentence:
His friend drank lemonade.
---
4) a ferry wheel / They / rode / carousel / and
- Subject: "They"
- Verb: "rode"
- Objects: "a ferris wheel" and "a carousel" — but note: "ferry wheel" is likely a typo for
ferris wheel (common amusement ride).
- So: They rode a ferris wheel and a carousel.
✔ Final sentence:
They rode a ferris wheel and a carousel.
*(Note: "ferry wheel" → probably meant "ferris wheel")*
---
5) stage / They / shows / watching / enjoyed
- Subject: "They"
- Verb: "enjoyed"
- What did they enjoy? "watching shows on the stage" — that makes sense.
- So: They enjoyed watching shows on the stage.
✔ Final sentence:
They enjoyed watching shows on the stage.
---
✔ Final Answers:
1)
Ken and his friend went to the fair.
2)
Ken ate popcorn and a funnel cake.
