Answer:

B) Neither the puppies nor our full-grown dog likes their new toys.

Explanation:

In this sentence, the pronoun "Neither" refers to a selection between two subjects: <em>The puppies</em> (plural subject) and <em>our full-grown dog </em>(singular subject)<em>. </em>Since this pronoun can only refer to only one of the subjects and the one that comes second is of singular number, the pronoun's number is singular as well.

The antecedent "their" must then be replaced by one with singular number. In this case, it must be replaced with "its" as it refers to an animal.

<h3>What are Prepositions?</h3>

To indicate direction, time, place, location, spatial relationships, or to introduce an object, a preposition is a word or set of words used before a noun, pronoun, or noun phrase. Prepositions typically appear before a noun or pronoun, providing a relationship between nouns, pronouns, and other components of the phrase. Examples of prepositions include the words "in," "at," "on," "of," and "to." Prepositions, which are frequently brief words that denote direction or place, must be remembered to be understood. Simple prepositions are brief words that we place before nouns or pronouns to show how those words relate to the noun in question. The two basic categories of simple prepositions are time and place.

Look for examples of Okonkwo’s feelings and fears, the reasons for those fears, and the effect they have on his actions. Also lo
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer: Okonkwo struggles with fear of becoming like his father, fear of looking weak, and fear of his children not becoming like him.

In pursuit of might, Okonkwo fails to notice that his society values wisdom as well, and even kindness—an utterly unmanly quality in his eye

Okonkwo is a self-made, well-respected member of the Umuofia clan. Though outwardly stern and powerful, much of his life is dictated by internal fear. His greatest, overwhelming worry is that he will become like his father – lazy, unable to support his family, and cowardly. Okonkwo considers many of his father’s characteristics to be feminine. Much of Okonkwo’s behavior results from a reactionary desire to be completely unlike his father. This means that Okonkwo attempts to work hard, provide for his family materially, be brave, and be masculine in every possible way. As a result, Okonkwo’s becomes successful in many ways – he becomes very wealthy, holds a high-ranked position in the community, has three wives, and is known for his skill as a wrestler and warrior. But he also tends toward emotions that are extreme, and his fear motivates him to take actions which are often unnecessary and ultimately destructive. His fear of being feminine leads him to assist in the murder of Ikemefuna whom he loved, to beat his wives, be emotionally distant from his children, and to disown his oldest son

The answer that best explains how Nye's word choice helps establish her voice in the excerpt is the following one:
Nye uses figurative language to support her opinion that staying connected to one's heritage makes life richer.
