Answer:

They say strange things happen during a full moon.

Phil visited Uncle James shortly after his vacation.

After her accident, Julie helped Lian fix her broken-down bike.

Explanation:

Pronouns are those words that are used in place of nouns. They help in the unnecessary repetition of the nouns in the sentence. Pronouns must always have clear antecedents.

<u>Vague pronouns are those pronouns that are used in such a way that it is unclear which pronoun they are standing/ used for</u>. The use of pronouns in such a manner confuses us about which noun the pronoun is supposed to be for.

The sentences that contain vague pronouns are-

<em>"They say strange things happen during a full moon"</em>.

In this sentence, the pronoun "they" is unclear in who it represents.

<em>"Phil visited Uncle James shortly after his vacation"</em>.

In this sentence, the pronoun "his" is vague for it is unclear who it stands for, Uncle James or Phil.

<em>"After her accident, Julie helped Lian fix her broken-down bike"</em>.

The pronoun "her" in the sentence is vague for we do not know who it stands for, Julie or Lian.
