English

Pavel [41]3 years ago

There are many ironic events in "The Story of the Hour." First of all, we hear that the protagonist's husband has died, which turns out not to be true. Then she feels sad about her husbands death, however, her feelings turn to happiness once she realizes she is finally free. Ultimately, he returns home and she dies because her happiness was suddenly taken away from her - she didn't die because of heart problems, but rather because she no longer would have her freedom she so desperately wants.

Which sentence shows the correct use of a common homophone?
REY [17]

The correct answer is "I think you left your biology notebook on the bleachers yesterday"

Explanation:

The words "your" and "you're" are homophones because their pronunciation is the same and they are written similarly. However, they have a different meaning because the word "your" shows possession, while the word "you're" (you are) comprises a subject and the verb to be. In this context, the only sentence that is completely correct and uses these homophones correctly is "I think you left your biology notebook on the bleachers yesterday" because in this the word "your" is used to show possession, which matches its meaning.
