1 answer:

8 0

The correct option is A.
A non essential phrase is a phrase that can be removed from a sentence without changing the meaning of the sentence. Non essential phrases usually give unimportant information and details that one can easily do without. Commas are usually used to set off non essential phrases.
In the sentence given above, the non essential phrase in the sentence is 'A sight she had never seen before'. If this phrase is removed from the sentence, the idea in the sentence will still remain the same and the sentence will read: 'Pocahontas saw a man will yellow hair walking through the forest so she followed him.
There is also essential phrase; if an essential phrase is removed from a sentence, the main idea of the sentence will change.

loris [4]

Answer:

A. Change student's to students'.

Explanation:

In sentence 8, the word student's should be changed to students'. The given text tells about a woman who became a nun and was sent to be a teacher in Calcutta, India. Every teacher has multiple students, and the text doesn't specify that Agnes was concerned about a particular student's education. This leads us to the conclusion that she was concerned about all of her students. The word student's would suggest that she was concerned about one student, while students' suggests that she was concerned about more of them. This is why option A is the correct one.
