Answer:

She wants to be one of God’s angels in heaven.

Explanation:

The poetess,Anne Bradstreet, was a Puritan herself. In this poem she expresses her wishes when dead. Therefore, the line:  "And soar on high among the blest" expresses her wishes: once her body does not exist any longer, she whishes she could fly high and be among the ones who have been blessed by God. If you are blessed by God, you become an angel.

Decide whether the italicized word is being used as a determiner or a pronoun.
solmaris [256]

Answer:

Pronoun

Explanation:

<u>In the sentence - </u><u>This is a big mess.</u><u> - </u><u>'this' </u><u>is used as a pronoun, to be exact </u><u>a demonstrative pronoun. </u>

A demonstrative pronoun is a pronoun that is used to point at something specific within a sentence. It can be items in space or time.

These pronouns are This, That (for singular), These and Those (for plural).

This / These are used for singular items that are nearby. That / Those are used for multiple items that are not near us.

<u>Examples:</u>

This is my cat. - we can point at it, the cat is near us.

That is a plane. - the plane is not near us, so we use 'that'.

These are my favorite toys. - we point at many toys, and they are near us.

Those are my classmates. - we point at the classmates, they are not near.

Why 'this' is not a determiner in the sentence - This is a big mess.

A determiner is a word that introduces a noun. <u>It always comes before a noun, not after or without a noun near!</u>

<u>This car</u> is bad.

<u>These pies</u> look delicious.

I hope it helped you :)
