Okay, an antecedent of a pronoun is always a noun, so immediately you can reject the words late and wandered as incorrect answers, because late is an adjective, and wandered is a verb. This leaves us with two nouns, guests and party. Obviously, the pronoun several refers to the noun guests, so the correct answer is guests - that is the antecedent that corresponds with the pronoun. Several guests, not several parties.

PLZZZ HELP ITS PAST DUE AND REALLY NEED HELP
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

  • The story revolves around a mysterious cursed talisman—a monkey’s paw that symbolizes greed—everything that its owner could possibly wish for and the unrestricted ability to make it happen. This power makes the paw alluring, even to unselfish people who desire nothing and have everything they need. Mr. White, for example, is eager to procure the paw, even though he admits he is in need of nothing and is unsure of what to wish for. Herbert jokingly suggests that his father wish for money, which he does not need, just for the sake of it. This thought process illustrates how easily the paw can sway minds. The paw represents greed and brings out the selfish desire dormant in even the most content people. The wish is granted, but with unexpected, sinister consequences.

  • Keeping in mind the motif of three, one of the most common representations of a group of three in Western culture is the Holy Trinity from Christianity. It refers to Father, Son and the Holy Spirit. The monkey's paw hails from a faraway land where it was cursed by an Indian holy man – making it an anti-Christian symbol. Hence it disregards Christianity and the Holy Trinity, bringing unfortunate consequences to the family that indulges in it.

In which sentence does the verb number need to be changed in order to agree with the number of the subject?
velikii [3]

Answer:

A. My aunt and uncle usually sends me a picture postcard when they travel.

Explanation:

The subject is <u>My aunt and uncle</u>. This phrase can be replaced with the pronoun <em>they</em> because we have two people here who send me a postcard. So  the verb number needs to be changed in order to agree with the number of the subject: it should be send, not sends.  

In other words, use a plural verb with two or more subjects when they are connected by <u>and</u>.
