Answer:

Sentence 2.

Explanation:

Pronoun-antecedent agreement error is characterized as the error when there is an incongruity or disagreement between the pronoun and its antecedent. This error creates a kind of confusion while deriving the meaning of the sentence.

As per the question, <u>sentence 2</u> contains a pronoun-antecedent agreement error because the plural antecedent 'their' does not agree with the singular pronoun 'an enslaved person' which creates a perplexity in the meaning of the sentence. Thus, the sentence could be modified to rectify this error either by altering the pronoun as per the antecedent or vice versa as follows;

'It was common for an enslaved person to stop there on his/her way to the North.'

or

'It was common for the enslaved persons/people to stop there on their way to the North.'

What imagery or catchy phrases and hyperboles are used in the "I have a dream" speech by Martin Luther King Jr?
Dmitrij [34]
That one day.......
black men, white men.... will all sit together at the same table.

You can look up more on the internet.

Hyperbole

And when this happens, when we allow freedom to ring, when we let it ring from every village and every hamlet, from every state and every city, we will be able to speed up that day when all of God’s children, black men and white men, Jews and Gentiles, Protestants and Catholics, will be able to join hands and sing.

In a sense we have come to our nation’s capital to cash a check.

We cannot be satisfied as long as a Negro in Mississippi cannot vote and a Negro in New York believes he has nothing for which to vote. No, no…
