The king or the queen will bring his or her own personal servant.

Answer:

The answer is indeed letter A. The king or the queen will bring his or her own personal servant.

Explanation:

Let's begin our analysis with the second sentence, letter B: "The king or the queen will bring his own personal servant." In this sentence, the possessive pronoun used, "his", makes it sound as if a servant belonging only to the king will be brought. The servant can be brought by any of them, the king or the queen, but belongs to the king.

Letter C is "The king or the queen will bring their own personal servant." By using the possessive "their", the speaker makes it sound as if the servant belongs to both of them, to the king and the queen at the same time.

<u>Since we are looking for the sentence that uses the pronoun correctly to indicate that the king and the queen have separate servants, we should choose letter A. In "The king or the queen will bring his or her own personal servant", the use of both possessive pronouns "his" and "her" makes it clear that the king will bring the servant that belongs to him, while the queen will bring the servant that belongs to her.</u>

kondaur [170]

Answer:

Part A

O Passage 1 provides the distressing circumstances of Chief Joseph's submission to the US army.

Part B

"No one knows where they are" (paragraph 4)

Advantage/Disadvantage

Watching the interaction between the Chief and US army allows the viewer to fool the tension between the two parties. Advantage

Watching the video allows the viewer to disregard the historical context for which the Chief gave his speech. Disadvantage

Listening to the Chief's speech allows the viewer to feel the emotional impact of the speaker's resignation. Advantage

Explanation:

In passage 1, the distressing circumstances that prompted the Chief's resignation to the United States Army were explained. The Chief lamented that many of their leaders were now dead. The weather was not favorable for them and many of their children could not be found. These things made him surrender.

His lamentation on not knowing where his children are is an example of the distressing circumstance that he faced. A video showing the events that transpired will help the viewer to appreciate the events more and relate to them.
