The answer C correctly uses possessive form and is the right answer. It's not A because there is only one George so the apostrophe is in the wrong place. In B, there's not even an apostrophe and it's not clear as to whether there is only one cousin or two or more cousins. In answer D, here should not be an apostrophe for develops.

Answer:

C. The perspective because of the child's young age does not hinder his admiration.

Many argue that Walt Whitman is a Transcendentalist.
GarryVolchara [31]

<em>Walt Whitman</em> was a poet of the Romanticism movement and mostly all of his literary works follows the transitions of between the transcendentalist and the philosophical realism.

Transcendendalists believed that society and social institutions corrupted the purity of individuals. The guiding principle of this philosophical movement is the belief that people are at their best when they are self-reliant and independent, but a little of idealism was corrupted inside the transcendentalism adding that the body was coupled with a sense of metaphysics or higher than other things.

From the notes on <em>Leaves of Grass</em>, Whitman should be considered a transcendentalist because in this collection the poems involves the themes of the body and soul. It stands both for the individual self and all of the humanity, declaring that the body is one and the same as the soul. His writings followed the transcendentalism with idealistic thoughts, stating that the peacefulness of the body is better accomplished with the sense of self-reliance and independence.

Salsk061 [2.6K]
Listening to a story can affect understanding dramatically. There are several ways it can do this:

The emphasis put on particular words, phrases, or sentences can point out something or illustrate something that a reader may not have noticed.

When different intonations are used for different characters it can reveal in more depth a character's emotions.

The speed at which particular passages or dialogue is read can affect the way a listener visualizes the action.

Using accent correctly can help a listener understand or interpret the way a non-native speaker views the world, or can reveal what particular words are meant to sound like.

When writing your response, keep these things in mind.
