In the stanza on the top of page 2 (lines 10-18), how does the author's vivid description of the
setting affect the mood in the poem?

a. "to practice" is the best phrase to complete the sentence.

explanation:

during the summer, she likes to practice her soccer skills so that she is ready to play in the fall.

(note that : all the other options "the practicing of", "practice for" and "to do a practice on" are inappropriate as they make the sentence grammatically incorrect.)

nominative
