Read the sentence.

Joe kept pace with his brother as they were running around the track until he became too tired and had to stop.

Which sentences correct the vague pronoun problem in the sentence? Check all that apply.

He kept pace with his brother as they were running around the track until he became too tired and had to stop.

Until Joe became too tired and had to stop, he kept pace with his brother as they were running around the track.

Joe kept pace with him as they were running around the track until he became too tired and had to stop.

Until he became too tired and had to stop, he kept pace with his brother as they were running around the track.

Until his brother became too tired and had to stop, Joe kept pace with him as they were running around the track.

Answer:

Until Joe became too tired and had to stop, he kept pace with his brother as they were running.

Until his brother became too tired and had to stop, Joe kept pace with him as they were running around the track.

Explanation:

A vague pronoun is a type of pronoun that its meaning is obscure and confusing and is not immediately clear because it sometimes has more than one meaning.

From the given sentence, it is impossible to find out who was tired, from Jor and his brother and had to stop, so we can fix this vague pronoun problem below by stating that it was Joe that was too tired and had to stop or, we can say it was his brother that got too tired and had to stop.

Wei-Chen was Jin Wang's foil in the first half of American Born Chinese, but in the second half of the story, he is Jin Wang's a
kirill115 [55]

The reason why this can happen is because of the transformative journey that Jin Wang is on. At first, Jin Wang is ashamed of being Chinese, and wants to appear as white as possible. Wei-Chen is fully Chinese, and because of this, he is a foil, as he is a character that highlights the characteristics of the protagonist by contrasting them with his own, which are the opposite.

However, as the story progresses, Jin Wang becomes even less similar to Wei-Chen, as he kisses Suzy and as he transforms into Danny. Jin Wang, therefore, not only contrasts with Wei-Chen, but is in open opposition to him. This makes Wei-Chen the antagonist.
