Read the excerpt from The Common Sense of Bicycling: Bicycling for Ladies.
By straightening the knees and using the ankle movement freely, the rise of the knees may be lessened several inches. When the pedal is at the highest point, the toe should be raised and the heel lowered. . . . although the right pedal is at the highest point, the knee has made very little impression on the front skirt. The feet should be in line with the machine, turning neither in nor out. The knees must be kept pretty close to the machine and should not move laterally at any part of the circle. The arms should have a slight drop at the elbows. The handles should be about level with the saddle, but this will depend on relative length of arms and waist.

I am pretty sure ur answer is B) isolated
Answer:
In the story, "The Valiant Woman" by J.J. Powers, we find that in judging people, we overlook most of the characteristics that draw us to them, but we do so without realizing it. We can draw inaccurate conclusions about a person by misjudging their facial expressions, their physical stamina, and their obvious personality traits. When people are blinded by false superiority, they judge a person incorrectly because they fail to see them as they really are.
Explanation:
The paragraph has been revised and the inconsistencies with the shift of person and shift of number have been corrected.
It has been rewritten and consistency was maintained by making use of the first person plural when referring to readers, and the third person plural nouns and pronouns when referring to those being judged.
These sentences contains a pronoun shift:
1)T<span>eenagers often want more freedom, but you need to show that you are responsible.
</span><span>
2) If a student wishes to go on the field trip, they must bring in a permission slip.
</span><span>
The first sentence starts in third person (teenagers) and midway shifts to second person (you), indicating a pronoun change.
The second sentence starts in third person singular (a student) and shifts to third person plural (they), indicating a pronoun change.
Pronoun shifts are best avoided in writing since they are confusing for the reader and interrupt the flow of writing.</span>
