Which sentence uses a restrictive appositive correctly?

English

The sentence that uses a restrictive appositive correctly is "Her niece Shirelle was the oldest daughter of her sister," as stated in option 1 and seen below.

<h3>What is a restrictive appositive?</h3>

A restrictive appositive is a word or phrase that renames another word in the sentence in a way that is essential for the sentence to be understood. Restrictive appositives are not set off by commas. With this knowledge, we can already eliminate options B and D.

We are left with options A and C. In both, we have restrictive appositives but one of them is wrong. The incorrect option is C. There is no need to make "Henry" a restrictive appositive. It is unlikely that Mrs. Whitaker has another late husband.

On the other hand, we know that someone's sister has at least two daughters. So it is essential to make it clear that the one they are talking about is "Shirelle". Therefore, the use of a restrictive appositive here makes perfect sense.

With the information above in mind, we can choose option A as the correct answer.

Why did early attempts at sleep teaching fail? How did they improve it?
AlexFokin [52]

The most logical reason as to why sleep teaching failed is because they didn't consider the strength of a child's mind. They wanted to show the kids sane reality, which was really overpowering and incomprehensible. In fact, they even changed strategies years after the fact, moral instruction turned into the favored lesson. This was accepted to be suitable on the grounds that it was not rational idea.
