Show that the underlined strings in sentence 1 and sentence 2 are syntactic constituents, by using the tests for constituency discussed in class.
In each case, you should give the name of the test you are applying (e.g., "movement test"), and apply the test to the underlined phrase.
For the two underlined phrases below, you should give two different types of tests for each phrase, and you cannot apply the same test twice. In your answers, underline the phrase that you are considering the constituent (see example).
Example:
Sentence: People with anger issues should not become police officers.
o Test 1 = Cleft movement: It is people with anger issues who should not become police officers o Test 2 = Conjunction: People with anger issues and people with no patience should not become police officers.
Sentence 1: The extremely curious kid explored the room in a small car.
Sentence 2: The workers distributed the sand into many small boxes.
