Answer:

I would select "that they" as the error for this sentence.

Explanation:

When the author of the sentence chose to use the pronoun "they", he/she made the sentence ambiguous. There are two possible antecedents for the pronoun:

Members of the community donated books to the new charter school in the hope that they would be a success.

Since the third-person plural pronoun "they" can refer to both "members" and "books", which are third-person plural nouns, the sentence is unclear. Who or what would be a success? The members would be a success? The books would be a success? Let's see two possible changes to correct the sentence:

1. Members of the community who hoped to be a success donated books to the new charter school.

2. Members of the community donated books to the new charter school in the hope that the books would be a success.

Recall the final step in the process to determine theme—use the events that happened in the fable and why they happened to infer
Setler79 [48]

Answer:

The theme of the fable would be:

<em>Always remain humble and live within your means.</em>

<em></em>

This could be seen in the action done by the city mouse where he was boasting that he is living in riches rather than penury. He also never told his friend, country mouse that, the house was never his, thereby creating larger than life living lifestyle.

The best summary to support the theme is the statement made by the country mouse  <em>"I'm off. You live in the lap of luxury, I can see, but you are surrounded by dangers; whereas at home I can enjoy my simple dinner of roots and corn in peace."</em>
