Which sentences in these excerpts reflect the common theme of soldiers’ reluctance to talk about their war experiences? Ambush b
kherson [118]
In the first excerpt it is this sentence:"It was a difficult moment, but I did what seemed right, which was to say, "Of course not," and then to take her onto my lap and hold her for a while."
Here we see that the author is really not comfortable with the question his daughter asked him and thus he lies to her. You can see the pain he feels in just one sentence and the horrors that are hidden behind. One day he may tell her but not then.
"They would discuss their experiences right up to the time of battle and then suddenly they wouldn't talk anymore."
This sentence in the second excerpt show the unwillingness of the usually boastful people to talk about the war in detail. The author notices that they don't remember and it could potentially be that they wanted not to remember. Unconsciously they blocked the horrible things they had done and seen.

Which pronoun correctly completes the following sentence? own backpack and ran to math class. (5 The student picked up points) O
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

The student picked <em><u>his or her</u></em> own backpack and ran to math class.

Explanation:

Pronouns are those words that we use to replace nouns. This is to avoid the repetition of the nouns and to make the sentence smoother and easier to understand.

In the given sentence, the main subject is "the student". Now, we cannot know what is the gender of the student but it is understood that it will be either he/ she, which makes the required pronoun include both genders. And on that note, the pronoun for the 'student' will be used in the possessive determiners (his/ her) instead of the personal pronoun (he/she) forms.

Thus, the correct answer will be "his or her".
