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).

Sauron [17]

Answer:

When I was down and out of luck

When dark the path, my life had took

When I was at my lowest low

A rope, a helping hand did throw

And pulled me up, out of the pit

And in the dark, a candle lit

And for my hunger gave me "Bread"

Then quenched a thirst inside my head

This loving servant helped me see

There's so much more to this, than me

By helping me, she showed me love

And led me to the One above

And now, alone, as I reflect

I find a spot of self-respect

That had been drowning in my tears

And had not shown itself in years

Let me through life, now walk, not run

Because the help of this true one

Did set me straight and on my way

And I'll remember day to day

I found this one hope it helps :)
