Which possessive pronoun best completes the following sentence?

lara [203]

Answer:

Peter and Paulette raked the leaves in <u>their</u> front yard.

Explanation:

Possessive pronouns show possession or ownership in a sentence. There are two types: Absolute possessive pronouns, namely, mine, yours, his, hers, its, ours, yours, and theirs. And possessive adjectives, namely, my, your, his, her, its, our, your, and their; unlike, absolute possessive pronouns, possessive adjectives are always placed next to a noun.

So, with this definition, we can easily discard option 2 "them." because it is not a possessive pronoun.

Now, in the sentence, the possessive pronoun that should be in the blank is one that refers to both Peter and Paulette, that is to say, to the third-person plural. "Her" and "his" refers to the third-person singular, and "their" refers to the third-person singular,l, so the correct answer is definitely "their."

The theme of Christina Georgina Rossetti's poem "Helen Grey" is, beauty isn't everything. We know this to be true because the Rossetti describes Helen Grey as "handsome" and "proud" but also says "But so you miss that modest charm / Which is the surest charm of all." This shows the reader that Helen Grey is very attractive and takes pride in her attraction. However, she has let her beauty go to her head, resulting in an unpleasant personality that no man has found her attractive. The last four lines of the poem "Helen Grey" support the its main theme by drawing the reader's attention to the reality of age and time. Time will continue to go by causing Helen to grow old, wrinkly, and gray. Time will pass and with it, Helen's beauty shall pass too. If she does not change her ways, she will be left with and unattractive personality, and face.

Review each paragraph of the essay. Then write down one statement from each paragraph that you think sums up the main idea of th

Sever21 [200]

<u>Paragraph I.</u>

Answer:

<u>In order to reunite with nature, a person needs to withdraw and look at it with fresh and pure eyes, without all the bias that civilization has imposed on us.</u>

Explanation:

In our lives, we are too often immersed in trivial worldly affairs, so much so that we take nature and its beauty for granted. Stars, for example, are so magnificent that they are worthy of adoration. But we often fail to see their magnificence just because we see them every night.

<u>Paragraph II.</u>

Answer:

<u>Nature's beauty and perfection are inexhaustible even for the wisest of people.</u>

Explanation:

We can try to grasp nature's wonders all we want - they will never expire or cease to exist, nor will they become incomprehensible. On the contrary, nature will always reflect both "the wisdom of [a man's] best hour" and "the simplicity of his childhood".

<u>Paragraph III.</u>

Answer:

<u>A man can own fields or farms or woods, but he can never own nature itself.</u>

Explanation:

Nature is integral (whole and undivided). Even though people may draw lines and boundaries through it, they can never own it. Only the poet can grasp its full integrity.

<u>Paragraph IV.</u>

Answer:

<u>Nature is comprehensive and inclusive of all of our feelings.</u>

Explanation:

In nature, a man can reestablish contact with his youth and childhood, but also with his own universal nature. Only there can he finally understand how pointless his egotism is, how unimportant all his worldly concerns and cares.

<u>Paragraph V.</u>

Answer:

<u>In their essence, man and nature are connected with an unbreakable bond.</u>

Explanation:

Even if physically alone, a man can never be truly alone in nature. That is because every element of nature (for example, a bough) reflects his inner, spiritual processes. A storm may take a man by surprise, but it is not unknown or unfamiliar to him.

<u>Paragraph VI.</u>

Answer:

<u>Human spirit and emotions are a result of harmony between man and nature.</u>

Explanation:

We can "read" the same landscape differently, according to our current emotions. For example, a scene that yesterday seemed delightful can today appear as melancholic. "Nature always wears the colors of the spirit," says Emerson in this paragraph. It means that nature is susceptible to our imagination, which in turn means that man and nature are equal, and equally important.
