Which theme connects the Lady to Lancelot in Tennyson's "The Lady of Shalott"?

Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

aloneness

Explanation:

The poem “The Lady of Shalott” tells the story of the young isolated woman. The lady lives in the tower on the island that lies on the river flowing to Camelot. Lady knows she is bound by some curse, but she is not sure what it is nor what are the consequences. She looks on to the road to Camelot through the mirror, while weaving at all times.

However, she becomes more isolated and lonely over time. In one line she says, 'I am half sick of shadows,' meaning she doesn’t want only to see the shadows of the people and their lives while being unable to live her life herself with other people.

When she sees Sir Lancelot, she is overflown with the wish for the company and decides to stop weaving and leave the island. However, she dies before arriving at the shore of Camelot. Her wish to meet other people and stop being alone brought down the said curse upon her.

Which sentence contains a pronoun that is not in the proper case? 20 points

siniylev [52]

1. The sentence that contains a pronoun that is not in the proper case is A) The principal decided that the ultimate decision about dress code should be left to we students.

The pronoun that is not in the proper case is "we", which is a subject pronoun, that is to say a pronoun that replaces a noun as subject of a sentence. The use of "we" in this sentence is incorrect and it should be replaced with the pronoun "our", which is a possesive pronoun. In this case, "our" should be used to indicate that the students, which is the noun that comes after the pronoun, belong to that specific school.

2. The sentence that has a possesive noun error is A) The management believed it had little choice but to lay off the companies highest paid employees.

The mistake in this sentence is "companies". "Companies" must be changed to "company's" because the sentence is making reference to the management of one company and not more than one. Moreover, the possesive noun or genitive case ('s) is used to show possession or to show that someone belongs to a group. In this case, the genitive case must be added to indicate that the "highest paid employees" belong to that company.

3. The sentence that has an error is C) At the beach with her two sisters, John's mother wasn't sure whether those flip-flops were hers' or one of theirs.

The error that this sentence has is "hers'". Hers is a possessive pronoun; therefore, it is used to indicate possession. In this case, it is used to signal that John mother might possess those flip-flops. However, the mistake is in the apostrophe ('). The apostrophe should not be added at the end of the word. In general, apostrophes are not added at the end of possessive pronouns.

4. The possessive pronoun that best completes the sentence is B) their.

The possessive pronoun "their" indicates that two or more people possess something. In this case, it is used to show that both Mr. and Mrs. Rhodes own a car. In that way, option a) is incorrect because "the" is an article and not a possessive pronoun, while d) is also incorrect because "they" is a subject pronoun. Moreover, it is not possible to use the possessive pronoun "theirs" as option c) suggests because the pronoun in the sentence is followed by a noun. In contrast to "theirs", "their" can be followed by a noun. Therefore, option b) is the correct one.
