Answer:

B. Jorge threw a ball, and Jake caught it.

Explanation:

Pronouns are part of speech used to replace previously mentioned nouns (in most cases) in order to avoid unnecessary repetition.

When using pronouns, one should be careful to do so in a clear manner, to avoid ambiguity.

Using two (or more) nouns in the first part of the sentence might pose the question to which of them the pronoun refers.

In sentence A) we don't know whether Jameson broke the tray or his foot.

Sentence C) doesn't help us determine who won; Jared or Jesse.

Similarly, sentence D) leaves unanswered the question to whom the pronoun "she" refers; Jillian or Josie.

Only sentence B) is clear enough; the pronoun "it" replaces the noun "a ball".

It is also good to remember that the noun replaced by a pronoun is called antecedent. So, "a ball" is clear antecedent for the pronoun "it" in sentence B).

Reverend Buckminster licked his lips. "What were you doing on Malaga Island?"

Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

The opposing forces are Rev. Buckminster and his son Turner Buckminster.

It is a man vs man/ individual vs. individual/ person vs person conflict.

The conflict is related to the setting for the story happens during the racist prejudice era.

Explanation:

The conflict in a narrative story is the contrast in the forces or elements in play. These opposing forces try to suppress each other, further forwarding the plot.

The conflict in the passage from the story "Lizzie Bright and the Buckminster Boy" by Gary D. Schmidt is between Turner Buckminster and his father Rev, Buskminster. The Rev. does not like his son hanging around with people such as Lizzie, who are of a colored section. The setting of the story being during the racism, Turner had been prevented by his father to stay away from the colored people. But rather than doing what he's told, he began to hang around more and more with Lizzie. Thus, the opposing forces of the conflict are the father and son.

The type of conflict is man vs. man or individual/ person vs. individual/person. This type of conflict happens when a man or an individual have conflicting interests from another individual.

The conflict in this scene is related to the setting for the interests of the two individuals are different from each other. Since the theme of racial discrimination is prevalent in the story, the conflict in the two individuals' beliefs also led to the further advancement of the story.
