Answer:

The blue shirt is mine.

Explanation:

Absolute possessive pronouns are pronouns that show possession of something or someone and that stand alone because they do not require an antecedent in order to be used, as most pronouns do, such as my, your, their, his, her, etc.

Furtheremore, the absolute possessive pronouns are 7: mine, yours, his, hers, its, ours, and theirs. So, the blue shirt is mine is the one that has this type of pronoun because it has mine and it shows that "I" posses the blue shirt without even mentioning the antecedent.

The other sentence shows ownership as well, but "me" is not a possessive pronoun but an object pronoun that is the object of the preposition "to."

The literary term would be an oxymoron. Oxymorons are “a figure of speech in which apparently contradictory terms appear in conjunction (e.g. faith unfaithful kept him falsely true ).”

A major difference between the Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's original story "The Adventure of the Speckled Band" and its film version relates to the story's setting. In the original story, we see Holmes and Watson meeting with Helen Stoner in their shared 221B Baker Street apartment. In the film, Holmes works in a modern office equipped with the latest technology. However, the setting of the crime scene is the same in the original story and in the film. It takes place at Stoke Moran. The Adventure of the Speckled Band tells one of the cases of the detective Sherlock Holmes, the investigation of a mysterious death and the suspicioun that someone else might die under the same circumstances. Both the book and the adaptation follow the plot, diverging mostly on the resources Holmes has at his disposal, like a mordern office with secretaries in the adaptation and only a simple apartment in the book.

Answer: B. By having Ruth feel pride toward Walter after her initial indifference, the author leaves the reader feeling satisfied with their relationship.

Walter has been a complicated character throughout the play. Unhappy with his financial situation, he is desperate to improve it, at the same time as he is ashamed because of his inability to provide for his family. This leads him to make bad financial decisions that only leave the family in a worse situation. This has also taken a toll on his relationship with Ruth. However, in this scene, we see Walter has changed, and Ruth has noticed. She is extremely proud of him, which implies that their relationship will survive.
