My stomach feels like it’s tightening into a tiny little ball. I feel like throwing up. I keep thinking that I’ll get laughed at

the minute I step off the bus. Instead, I’m greeted by a couple of my friends who were in my English class last year. At that point, it hits me. Ms. Gruwell, my crazy English teacher from last year, is really the only person who made me think of hope for my future. Talking with my friends about our English class and the adventures we had the year before, I began to feel better . . . . I receive my class schedule and the first teacher on the list is Ms. Gruwell in Room 203. I walk in the room and I feel as though all the problems in my life are not important anymore. I am home.

In which of the following sentences is the word its used correctly? A. The problem with the lawn mower is that its old. B. The m
AlexFokin [52]
The correct answer choice is answer choice B, The monster reared its head at the tourists. Many people do not understand the difference between its and it's.

Its - possessive form of it
It's - contraction meaning 'it is'

When trying to figure out whether to use 'its' or 'it's', ask yourself if the sentence makes sense when you substitute 'it is'. If it does, then use 'it's'. If it doesn't, use 'its'.
