Answer:

B. By showing how weak and indecisive the sisters are .

Explanation:

Katherine Mansfield's short story The Daughters of the Late Colonel is about the two daughters of the dead Colonel and their indecisiveness in anything, be it about their father's funeral, or distributing his things or even letting go of their maid.

The sisters' indecisiveness has also been the result of being constantly under their father and focusing their lives around his. None had done really anything for the sole purpose of their lives had been to please and help their father. And once he's gone, none knows how to fully operate on their own, feeling the presence of their father even after he's dead. And in their indecisiveness, the author Katherine conveys the theme of the whole story.

Thus, the correct answer is option B.

Explanation:

Hyvaa Pyvaa! (Good morning in Finnish if I´m not mistaken)

A phoneme is a unit of sound that distinguishes one word from another in a particular language. Hence the example of Kate and Kade in Finnish shows us that these are separate words (i.e. with different meaning) because they are distinguished by their respective phonemes, t and d.

Explanation:

I have been able to match the sentences to their object pronouns.

Object pronouns are known to be those pronouns that replaces noun in a sentence and are the objects that receive the action in that sentence.

In a sentence, if the object pronouns replace nouns, the nouns they replace cannot be the subject of that sentence. These object pronouns are known to be personal pronouns which are used as grammatical object. They are used as the direct or indirect object of a verb or can be used as the object of a preposition.

Some examples are me, you, him, her, us, it, etc.
