Read the sentence from Gulliver's Travels.

English
1 answer:
Valentin [98]4 years ago
7 0

Answer:

After several unsuccessful confrontations with her supervisor, Sandra became inured to his harsh treatment in order to keep her job.

Explanation:

When Gulliver said that "<em>By the same computation, they provided me with sheets, blankets, and coverlets, tolerable enough for one who had been so long inured to hardships</em>", he is implying that he had already become so accustomed to the hardships that he no longer finds it uncomfortable. The word "inured" means to get accustomed to the situation after suffering for so long, especially bad situations. So, in this sense, the sentence "After several unsuccessful confrontations with her supervisor, Sandra became inured to his harsh treatment in order to keep her job" correctly uses the word "inured" in the right way.

Should it be peers or peer's or peers' ?
Nataly_w [17]
Peers has two meanings:
1) verb: to look or gaze. For example: He peers at the puppy through the window. (that is, he looks at the puppy through the window)
2) noun: Individuals who are comparable on some given metric. For example: My peers and I met to discuss issues which impacted our lives. 

Peer's refers to something belonging to a single peer (definition two above).
For example: I thought that my peer's sweater looked very nice on him. 

Peers' refers to something belonging to a group of peers (definition two above). For example: As a group, my peers' achievements are very impressive!

So for your sentence on taking advice, I would assume that you would want
to use "peer's", because it refers to the advice which comes from a single peer.
