**Explanation**

**Question 1:** The sentence "I have been to the store" is


grammatically correct. The verb "to go" is used in the present
perfect tense to indicate that the action of going to the store
has happened at some time in the past and the effects of that
action are still relevant in the present.

**Question 2:** The sentence "I'm going to the beach to swim"


uses the homophones "to" and "too." "To" is a preposition that
indicates direction or purpose. "Too" is an adverb that means
"also" or "excessively."

**Question 3:** The word "joyful" is a synonym for the word


"happy." Both words mean "feeling or expressing pleasure or
delight."

**Question 4:** The past tense of the verb "to eat" is "ate."

**Question 5:** A subordinate clause is a clause that cannot


stand alone as a sentence. It must be attached to an
independent clause to form a complete sentence. The sentence
"Because I like pizza, I ordered one for dinner" contains a
subordinate clause, "Because I like pizza." This clause cannot
stand alone as a sentence because it does not have a complete
thought. It needs to be attached to the independent clause, "I
ordered one for dinner," to form a complete sentence.
