Choose the word group that is a complete sentence, not a run-on sentence.
1) She opened the boxes crammed with toys, and out sprang griffins, dragons, and phoenixes.
2) She opened the boxes crammed with toys, out sprang griffins, dragons, and phoenixes.
The answer is 1).
I think it can be the answer only if ‘out sprang’ is used as a verb in the sentence above. Is it used as a verb phrase here, or is there a typo in the sentence??
Thank you in advance!

I have always wondered how the various teaching paradigms offered by teachers and the distinct learning approaches adopted by students align on this platform.
Are teachers expected to have a solid grounding in linguistics and complete a teaching certification, in addition to showing empathy?
How do you feel about using bilingual texts compared to total immersion?
Setting aside financial concerns, what would the ideal language-learning schedule look like?
What is the most challenging aspect of both teaching and learning a language, based on your personal experience?

Hi! “It's (high) time+pronoun+past verb form”
I was talking with a native speaker the other day and he told me we should use infinitive after this expression, but according to the grammar book, we can never use infinitive in this case.
Only if we were to say something like: it is time for us to...
And I really want to know your opinion. Does it even sound natural? For instance: It's (high) time we bought presents.
And also, is "high" often used there, or is it rather an obsolete language structure?
It's just that I want to speak correctly in terms of grammar, but I don't want to sound like a dialogue from a grammar textbook…
