The correct answer is B. Reflexive

Explanation:

In grammar, a pronoun refers to a word that replaces a noun, which is a place, person, object or animal. Additionally to this, pronouns are classified into different types, this includes intensive and extensive pronouns. Intensive pronouns are pronouns that end in -self or -selves and are mainly used to give emphasis to a noun. On the other hand, reflexive pronouns also end in -self or -selves but these refer to the subject of a sentence or the noun that performs the action. This means while intensive pronouns refer to any noun in a sentence reflexive ones only refer to the subject. In the case of the sentence "The spider lowered itself on a thin strand of silk" the pronoun is "itself" and refers to "the spider" which is also the subject or agent that performs the action and therefore this pronoun is a reflexive pronoun.

Write a paragraph on a storm in a about 100 words
inn [45]

Answer:

I shot up in bed awakened by the sound that I had thought was my alarm clock. I was surprised to find that the glowing red LED lights read 2:11 am. If it wasn't the alarm clock what was it? I had thought to myself while wiping the sleep from my eyes. Suddenly I heard a deafening crack. The type of crack you hear when you pour boiling water on ice. While the noise filled my ears a blinding light lit up my bedroom. I could make everything out as if someone had just flipped the switch on. I saw my vanity clear as day across the room.

t took a few moments before I came to my senses and realized what was happening. I had scanned the weather only hours on my laptop and had not noticed any warnings of a storm approaching. But here I was looking out my bedroom window face to face with the violent beast.

Suddenly I heard another deafening crack of thunder. This one so powerful my whole house trembled under the force of the storm. Like a child I ran for the security of my bed. Still warm from the few hours I had previously spent peacefully sleeping in it. I crawled deep within my blankets, covering myself from head to toe. Leaving nothing but a small space exposed, just large enough for me to see out of.

It felt like hours I lied there listening to the storm wishing that it would pass. Just when I thought it had moved on I was proven wrong and it gave me another terrifying blast as if it just needed a moment to put all of its power together.  

My eyelids became so heavy that the struggle to keep my eyes open became stronger than my fear of the storm.  The warmth that my body had generated under the blankets was getting to me. I was falling asleep. Despite my intense fear of closing my eyes and leaving myself vulnerable to the storm I eventually drifted off.

Despite the fear that the storm had embedded on my soul and the disaster it had turned my yard into. It sure did bring on a beautiful day.

Document that absolved people from sin; originally granted in exchange for services or donations to the church
Digiron [165]

Answer:

Indulgences

Explanation:

In a simple way, we can say that the indulgences represented the sale of pardons that the early Catholic Church promoted. These indulgences were a type of document that absolved people from sin by paying or donating goods to the church, such as property and precious metals. This practice was carried out between the end of the Middle Ages and the beginning of the modern era and marks a time of religious abuse. Indulgences were one of the reasons that stimulated the Protestant reformation.
