How would you rewrite the phrase below using a possessive noun?
noname [10]

The option that best shows how to rewrite the phrase "the beards of the three men" with a possessive noun is:

A. The three men's beards.

  • This question is about possessive nouns, also known as genitive case.

  • The genitive case is generally formed by the addition of an apostrophe and the letter "s" to a noun. It serves to indicate that that noun owns something.

  • An example is: My mother's car is the blue one. --> the noun "mother" owns the "car".

  • When we have a plural noun, the general rule of using the apostrophe and the "s" may change a little.

  • If the plural noun ends in an "s", we must only add the apostrophe. Examples: boys'; girls'; kids'; cats'.

  • However, if the plural noun does not end in "s", we must <u>add both the apostrophe and the "s"</u>. Examples: men's; women's; children's.

  • Having that in mind, we can see the option A is the correct one. "Men" <u>does not end in "s"</u>. Thus, we should write "men's".

Choose the correct option to complete the mini conversation:
Ilya [14]

Answer:

The first option does not include all the information. It does not mention that Anna enjoys her life of the farm. We can eliminate it.

The third option uses "and" to connect all three clauses. However, "Anna enjoys living on a farm" is not an addition to the chores she has to do, which makes the sentence sound strange. We can also eliminate this option.

The last option uses "when", which makes it sound as if she only enjoys living on a farm during the time she has to milk the cows and feed the chickens. This option is incorrect.

The best option is the second one. It connects Anna's two chores with "and". The "although" used for the remaining clause indicates that, even though Anna has chores, living on a farm is still enjoyable. It is the best revision, varying the sentence pattern, but keeping the meaning.
