Answer: appositive

Explanation:

An appositive is a noun phrase whereby one noun or in some other cases a pronoun is used, then there'll be another word that'll be used to clarify the noun or pronoun.

In thus case, the noun is "Dr. Benton Jones" while "a winner of the Nobel Prize for his chemistry theories" is clarifying Dr Benton Jones.

Therefore, this is an example of appositive.

( GIVE BRAINLIEST )

The hunger games is a novel that unfolds in Panem, an apocalyptic world. The story is centered on a 16-year-old girl, Katniss Everdeen and her struggle for survival in dystopia. Each year, as a punishment for the failed rebellion by District 13, the 12 Panem Districts are forced to pay tribute to the ruthless Capitol regime. The story begins on the day of reaping at District 12. A day that each district is required to offer two tributes, a boy and a girl aged 12 to 18 years to participate in the games. This was going to be the 74th hunger games.

In a twist of fate, Prim Katniss’ 12-year-old sister is selected as one of the tributes. Having lost their father at a young age, she isn’t going to let her mother lose her too as she swore always to protect them. She volunteers to take her sister’s place, and together with the baker’s son, Peeta Mellark they represent district 12. What follows is a series of events that will put Katniss in the spotlight both as a source of hope for the oppressed and as an enemy of the Capitol. Her feelings for Peeta will be exploited for the games, which are aired across all the districts.

She will make new friends, enemies, inspire and give hope to many people in Panem thanks to her performance in the games. What makes the hunger games a more thrilling story is the games win or die rule. Will Katniss have the heart to kill Peeta and vice versa, or will they both survive? This is the Hunger Games summary of the plot.

Since the beginning of the story, Constantia and Josephine, two daughters of the late colonel, show the inability to decide and think in certain circumstances. They choose not to talk about potential problems and possible solutions, so they rather choose to fight and discuss. Even if they are the responsible ones for their family after their father died, they lost the ability to make decisions and thinking for themselves.

Using proper and common nouns<br>​
valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

Proper nouns are always capitalized in English, no matter where they fall in a sentence. Because they endow nouns with a specific name, they are also sometimes called proper names. Every noun can be classified as either common or proper. A common noun is the generic name for one item in a class or group.
