Blizzard [7]
The antecedent of a pronoun is basically the noun that a pronoun replaces, AKA the noun that the pronoun refers to.  It should be somewhere before the pronoun in the sentence.  In the sentence "Strikers will return to work when the union representative has completed their name negotiation," the pronoun is "their."  Whose name negotiation is being completed?  The strikers.  This could read, "Strikers will return to work when the union representative has completed THE STRIKERS' name negotiation."  That works!  So, the pronoun "their" refers to the strikers.

Answer: strikers

After doing a close reading, why should you analyze the figurative language in a text?
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

After doing a close reading, you should analyze the figurative language in a text for the following reason:

b. to reveal hidden meanings.

Explanation:

If a reader relies only on what is denotative, that is, on what is on the surface, he or she will certainly be missing out on a lot of messages that can only be perceived and understood with an open mind and thorough eyes which also attain to what is connotative, that is, to what is between the lines and goes way beyond the core meaning of words.

In Voltaire's "Candide", the main character starts to lead a farmer's life and his friend Pangloss suggests they are living in the best of possible worlds, to which Candide responds with the classic line:

“That is very well put . . . but we must cultivate our garden.”

The author is certainly not literally talking about a garden; he is rather symbolically referring to something that is much more profound and meaningful and lies within the very essence of mankind. Therefore, there is indeed a hidden meaning in those words, and it must be analyzed and interpreted so the reader can better profit from the text.

Free_Kalibri [48]

In “I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud”, Flowers are spring flowers and Wordsworth uses them as a physical thing that refers to an idea or emotion for youth. It is romanticized but in old age the mind dwells mostly in the past, which the poet does at the end of the poem. Although on the nature of the poem it is in reality about growing old and having memories of youth.
