If the teacher or students have unexcused absences, the principal questions _____.Which pronoun correctly completes the sentence?

them
him
us
her

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: The correct pronoun is them.

Answer 2

Answer:

Them

When trying to determine what pronoun to correctly use in a sentence, one must always refer back to its antecedent or antecedents. If the antecedent is singular, then the pronoun should, too, be singular. If the antecedent if plural, then the pronoun, too, be plural. Or, if the subject is a compound subject, the pronoun should be plural, as well. Thus, when we look at the antecedents you have provided, we see that they are plural because there are two, and we will need a plural pronoun. Additionally, the plural pronoun should be in the third person because the narrator/speaker does not seem to be including him/herself in the subject and is speaking about the teacher and students.

"The laughing wind skipped through the village, teasing trees until they danced with anger, as the silly dog with golfball eyes and flopping, slobbery tongue run across the grass"I don't understand what does it mean?

Answers

"The laughing wind skipped through the village" So the the wind was harsh and loud, "Teasing trees until they danced with anger" meaning as the wind blew hard the trees as well swayed hard, and a very happy dog runs through the grass. Its using personification and extensive adjectives to turn a plain statement into something more exciting and mysterious. ((Hoped i helped a little bit))

this type of writing is metaphorical as well as personification. the laughing wind skipping through the village is the wind passing. teasing the trees until they dance with anger is the wind shaking the tree tops

Excerpt from: The Fall of the House of Usher Edgar Allan Poe The room in which I found myself was very large and lofty. The windows were long, narrow, and pointed, and at so vast a distance from the black oaken floor as to be altogether inaccessible from within...Dark draperies hung upon the walls. The general furniture was profuse, comfortless, antique, and tattered. Many books and musical instruments lay scattered about, but failed to give any vitality to the scene. I felt that I breathed an atmosphere of sorrow. An air of stern, deep, and irredeemable gloom hung over and pervaded all.Which idea from the passage is really an opinion?

Answers

Answer:

The best answer to the question: Which idea from the passage is really an opinion, would be: "I felt that I breathed an atmosphere of sorrow."

Explanation:

"The Fall of the House of Usher" is a short story by American writer Edgar Allan Poe, and which was first published in 1839. In this particular excerpt, most of the narration is actual fact, the speaker is simply describing what he sees, and what is there, but there is a point, near the end, where the speaker goes from what he sees and feels from the actual scenery, into what he thinks those visible things mean. Thus, he states something that he feels, or senses from what he sees and believes that all of it conveys sorrow. This is why that particular line in the excerpt is the correct answer to the question. The expression: "I felt..." strays from actual fact and goes into the perception of the one describing what he is seeing.

The general furniture was comfortless because what if someone though it was comfortable.
