Which sentence correctly uses a nominative case pronoun? a. Them and Alex are eager explorers.
b. Have him and Ernie finished the obstacle course yet?
c. The neighborhood kids and we waited for the parade.
d. The late sleepers are my brother and me.

Answers

A nominative case points to the subject, not object, of the sentence, so it has to be that someone who did the action described in the sentence. Also, it has to be in the nominative form, that is "i, you, he, she, we, they"

Here the correct answer is c. The neighborhood kids and we waited for the parade.: the "we" is correct and it's also nominative.

in A and B and D we don't have a nominative case.

What type of novel is meant to mirror daily life and deal with social issues?

Answers

A realistic fiction novel (or memoir depending on the speaker/subject).

According to this excerpt from "I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud" by William Wordsworth, what does the speaker do when he is in a reflective mood?The waves beside them danced, but they
Out-did the sparkling waves in glee:
A poet could not but be gay,
In such a jocund company:
I gazed—and gazed—but little thought
What wealth the show to me had brought:

For oft, when on my couch I lie
In vacant or in pensive mood,
They flash upon that inward eye
Which is the bliss of solitude;
And then my heart with pleasure fills,
And dances with the daffodils.

He writes as a release from his worries and fears.

Answers

He thinks of the scene described in the poem.

In the poem he uses the words vacant, pensive, solitude to indicate that he is in a reflective mood. When this happens he says that "they flash upon that inward eye". The pronoun they is referring to the scene with the daffodils. This scene allows him to feel happy and gay because he is "in such a jocund company". This poem has a positive tone to it. Any of the answers addressing a negative tone should automatically be eliminated.

Answer:

He thinks of the scene described in the poem.

Explanation:

To be pensive is to be "engaged in, involving, or reflecting deep or serious thought". The speaker is on his couch lost in thoughts

For oft, when on my couch I lie

In vacant or in pensive mood,

That way, he can forget about the rest, since what he thinks about will eventually make him happy:

A poet could not but be gay,

In such a jocund company
