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 role does advertising play in the lives of youth
Helga [31]
Advertising create an unrealistic world for most youth. For girls its all of the photoshopped bodies and perfect teeth and heavy makeup. For boys it about all the trucks, car and sports that they'll be forced to play someday. Also for young women sports or engineering toys aren't very apparent in any advertisements which leads them to believe that they can't build, or play sports or throw a ball around.

Which excerpt taken from “Ballad of Birmingham” by Dudley Randall is an example of sensory imagery? “brushed her night-dark hair
cestrela7 [59]

The excerpt from “Ballad of Birmingham” by Dudley Randall which is an example of sensory imagery is <u>“brushed her night-dark hair.”</u>

“Ballad of Birmingham” by Dudley Randall is a poem which is a conversation between a mother and daughter about a 'Freedom March' which will be happening on the streets of Birmingham. The daughter wishes to attend the march but her mother restricts her to go there and tells her about the dangers of going there. Instead, she sends her daughter to Church which is a safe place. But unfortunately, a bombing happens in the church in which the mother finds her daughter dead. She falls prey to the act of racism.

The line“brushed her night-dark hair” appeals to both the sense of touch and sight in the poem.
