C. The overplayed song has lost its appeal for me.
D. Its been too many weeks since it last rained.
Answer:
The answer is indeed letter C. The overplayed song has lost its appeal for me.
Explanation:
The options provided in the question concern the homophones "it's" and "its." They are commonly mistaken for each other dues to their sounding the same, and are consequently used erroneously. "It's" is the contraction of the subject pronoun "it" and the third-person singular verb "is." For that reason, "it's" is used as the subject of a clause, frequently substituting some previously mentioned noun or referring, for instance, to natural phenomena. The examples below help illustrate it:
- It's snowing again. - natural phenomenon
- My bike is making a weird noise when I try to start it. It's broken, I think. - substituting "my bike"
"Its", on the other hand, is a possessive adjective. It accompanies a noun, modifying it, to establish a relationship of possession between that noun and another one. Study the example below:
- That stray cat is constantly licking its paws. - the paws belong to the cat
Having that in mind, we can tell letter C is the only option that uses the correct homophone, since "its" establishes a relationship of possession between the song and the appeal. The song has an appeal. Its appeal (the song's) has been lost.
Letters A and B use "it's" when they should employ "its", and letter D does the opposite, using "its" when it actually needs the subject+verb "it's".
Answer:
3) everything is open to multiple interpretations
Explanation:
Different people may have different interpretations about something. This is normal because everything is open to multiple interpretations. So a photograph, a book, a movie, or anything else may have a meaning for me other than what it would mean to you. What is important is that everyone respects each other's interpretations and that these multiple interpretations generate a healthy debate about different ideas and thoughts.
