Which sentence has a pronoun with an unclear, missing, or confusing antecedent? A.
After I read the book, I returned it to the library.

B.
I found a caterpillar on a leaf, and I carefully carried it to my brother.

C.
This shirt is dirty, so I will put it in the laundry basket.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: I believe it would be B, because there are two subjects that the speaker is referring to at the beginning of the sentence; the caterpillar and the leaf. When they use the word "it" in the second half of the sentence it is unclear whether they mean to say if "it" is the leaf or the caterpillar which they are carrying to their brother.

Respond in a paragraph, answer is written in complete sentences. Answer: First we should know that both of these poet's had a bad experience in their lives, suffering similarly under tyranny and oppression during World War II, which shaped their perspective in very different ways. Milosz is the one that took it very personally and considered his life as emotionally destroyed while Szymborska looked at it as another chance at life that might never be given again. It is clear that the poet that addresses death in terms of the times they live in and as a threat of fascism is Milosz. This is apparent in the poem “City Without A Name”.
Does this sound good?

Answer:

Yes, but here are some suggested edits.

Explanation:

The most important point to highlight is the fact that both poets endured lives of suffering, tyranny, and oppression during World War II. These experiences shaped their perspective in very different ways.

Milosz took the affronts and misfortunes very personally and considered them to have emotionally destroyed his life. Szymborska, on the other hand, saw in his survival and endurance another chance at life which might never again be given to him.

It is Milosz who addresses death in terms of the time in which he lived and and in an analogous manner to the threat of fascism. The nature of this influence is apparent in the poem ''City Without A Name''.

Answer:

Personally, I think it sounds good with a few exceptions.

Explanation:

Your answer is about a hundred words and I would put it at about an 11th or 12th grade essay. However, I would add a comma at the very beginning after the word "first", and I would remove the apostrophe in the word "poets". (also in the first sentence) Other than that, I think it is an excellent essay.
