Antecedent is an expression that gives meaning to the word coming after that. For example, I was late to the meeting because police held me for speeding. In this sentence, pronoun me is an explained word which explain another pronoun - I. Antecedent has been used correctly in this sentence. In this question, the first option is correct. Antecedent has been used incorrectly in the second sentence because it's unclear who is considered with the pronoun he. The third option is also an incorrect antecedent because the explaining word has not been given.

The Misfits, by James Howe, is a book that chronicles the life of a kid in middle school who does not quite fit the stereotype of a "popular" kid. However, his life changes when his friend Addie decides to participate in the school's elections.

In the novel, the phrase is given as an example of the different expectations that society has for each gender. While being intelligent and tall is an advantage for boys, it can often be seen as a disadvantage for girls. This is a very relevant topic for teenage audiences due to their focus on being accepted and the struggles they face when creating their identity.
