The correct answer is option d: merchants

In grammar rules, an antecedent can be identified in a sentence because it is later replaced by a pronoun. An antecedent also refers in a sentence to something that happened in the past.

In the sentence provided as an example, the Venetian 'merchants' is the noun that is later replaced by its respective pronoun (theirs). The verb brought also tells us it was something that happened in the past.

ILL GIVE BRAINLIEST PLEASE HELP ASAP>explain the title why you reckon? Who is asking the question? what are they wondering ab
Nostrana [21]

Explain the title why, you reckon?<span>
The title of this short story is a highlight of the moral. This story written by Langston Hughes, narrates of a black man who, like many other in the post-WWII United States which was in the middle of an economic depression, had found himself wondering if money could buy you happiness, and why are rich people not happy?</span>

<span>
</span>

Who is asking the question?<span>
The question is presented by the protagonist, who wonders why rich people are unhappy, despite all the amount of money they have at their disposal. The young man was poor and hungry and decided to go all the way committing a crime just for the chance to buy himself a little bit of happiness. </span>

<span>
</span>

What are they wondering about?<span>
The protagonist is wondering if money could perhaps buy happiness, and if so, why people who have money and power are still unhappy and bored with their lives? He had always believed that money would make life easier (which is still a vastly shared thought) and cannot understand how come people with money are not afraid to lose them. </span>

<span>
</span>

Who are they asking?<span>
The question in the title is perhaps directed to the reader, creating a connection between the story and the real, outside world. But in the story the main character is wondering alone in the streets while asking this question to himself.  </span>

<span>
</span>

Why do they want to know?<span>
The main character is eager to understand whether money can buy happiness, since he has started to doubt it after the encounter with the rich young man who was excited about being robbed, describing the experience as one of the most thrilling experiences of his life. The protagonist cannot comprehend how rich people can still be unhappy and bored despite the immense fortune they have available. </span>
