Answer:

The answer: The pronoun "his" should be replaced by "its."

Explanation:

In the sentence, "The dog ran fast until his owner stopped it," "his" should replaced by "its" <u>since it should refer to the dog</u> and not the owner.

<u>Possessive Pronoun-</u> this refers to things or objects that show ownership. Examples are: <em>mine, ours, yours, his, hers, its and ours, etc. </em>

The possessive pronoun "its" is used to show ownership of a non-human subject, So, this could refer to things or animals and other living things. This includes the dog.

A better sentence would be: "The dog ran fast until its owner stopped it."

2. While Ralph is physically stronger than Piggy, Piggy proves to surpass Ralph intellectually. Give
JulijaS [17]

Answer:

1. Quoted by Piggy, “Look, I’m goin’ to say, you’re stronger than I am and you haven’t got asthma. You can see, I’m goin’ to say, and with both eyes. But I don’t ask for my glasses back, not as a favor. I don’t ask you to be a sport, I’ll say, not because you’re strong, but because what’s right’s right. Give me my glasses, I’m going to say—you got to!”

2. In order to get his glasses back, Piggy asks Jack to return them. In spite of the fact that Piggy lacks physical strength, he demonstrates intellectual strength and symbolizes logic and reason. On the basis of what is right and proper, Piggy makes an argument for his glasses' return, using his intellect. The fact that Jack ignores Piggy's plea and kills him shows that savagery has prevailed over civilization, at least on the boys' island.
