which sentence includes a reflexive pronoun? it was a long and hot baseball game. we finally finished! we treated ourselves to pizza. we deserved it after all those extra innings.

Answers

A reflexive pronoun will always contain “self” or “selves” and will reference (or reflect back to) the subject of the sentence.  For instance, “myself” is the reflexive pronoun in the following sentence:

I made myself laugh.

As a result, it can be said that a sentence with a reflexive pronoun will have the subject doing something to itself.  With that in mind, the sentence that contains a reflexive pronoun is the following sentence:  

We treated ourselves to pizza.

Again, we can see that the subject is doing something to itself—treating itself to pizza.

It's a special kind of pronoun. Normally used when the sentence is the same as the subject. So it would be " We treated ourselves to pizza."

A greenhouse used for plants stays warm because sunlight and heat coming through the glass roof are mostly trapped. The heat doesn't radiate back into the atmosphere because it's partly trapped by the glass. Something like that happens on Earth. The atmosphere acts like a blanket that keeps the Sun's heat from leaking away into space. 2. The main conclusion you can draw from this paragraph is that A. a greenhouse helps plants to grow faster. B. because of the greenhouse effect, plants on Earth should thrive. C. in a greenhouse, the Sun's heat is trapped by the glass. D. the atmosphere keeps Earth warm
