Question 1

The correct answer is d.

The possessive nouns are nouns that we use to express that a person or an object belongs to someone or something. We usually make them by adding apostrophe ('s) on the noun itself:

<em>boy's</em>

<em>mum's</em>

<em>Kate's</em>

In this particular case, we can notice that the sentence d. My dream is that one day my garden will be just as beautiful and productive as Sandy's! has a possessive noun and it is Sandy's.

SANDY (noun) + 'S = SANDY'S (possesive noun)

The other examples show the use of the possessive PRONOUNS.

a. Everything I know about gardening I learned from <u>my</u> good friend Sandy.

b. When she showed me <u>her</u> big, healthy, vegetable garden and offered me some gardening tips, I decided to listen hard.

c. Then she taught me how to cultivate rich and healthy soil and helped me identify which types of plants are best for the environment in <u>my</u> yard.

Question 2

The correct answer is c.

Proper nouns express a <u>unique person/object and become with capital letters</u>. All the other are<u> common nouns</u> (garden, soil, environment).

Question 3

The correct answer is c.

The present participle is the form we get when we add 'ing' to the verb.

<em>dig + ing = digging </em>

...as it appears in the example: A few weeks later, when I was digging up seeds that had not even sprouted yet, Sandy came over to introduce herself with a basket of fresh produce from her garden.
