C) Neither of the boys had his shoes on.

The correct answer is Neither of the boys had his shoes on. This is the only answer in which the pronoun ("his") matches the antecedent ("Neither").

Answer:

C). Neither of the boys had his shoes on.

Explanation:

The 'pronoun-antecedent agreement' says that the pronoun must agree with the antecedent in number and person. Therefore, the singular pronouns must carry a pronoun-antecedent and a singular pronoun employ a singular antecedent.

As per the question, the choice that correctly features a 'pronoun-antecedent agreement' would be option C as it appropriately employs singular pronoun 'his' with the singular antecedent 'neither' and therefore, exemplifies the agreement. Thus, <u>option C</u> is the correct answer.

Examples of informative speech
umka2103 [35]

Know your audience or reader: Your informative presentation – whether through speech or essay – should cover a subject not already well known to your audience, but still relevant to them. If you do choose a topic they’re familiar with, then present new and exciting information. Consider the age, knowledge level, and interests of your audience when preparing your informational speech or essay.

Consider your own interests: Think of your own passions and areas of expertise that you think people could benefit from learning more about. Choosing a topic you care about will help your speech or essay be better received. Your passion will keep them engaged and curious to learn more.

Consider length requirements: How much time are you allotted for your informative speech? What is the page requirement for your informative essay? You should be able to thoroughly cover the topic in the amount of time you are given. If you don’t think you have enough knowledge or personal interest to talk about illegal drug use among teens, saving money as a college student, or another informative topic for 20 minutes, you may need to consider a different subject.

In Sherlock Holmes, what suggests that Watson has an expert in understanding of the habits of Holmes?
sergejj [24]

Answer:

  • “To me, who knew his every mood and habit, his attitude and manner told their own story. He was at work again.” (paragraph 1)
  • “His manner was not effusive. It seldom was; but he was glad, I think, to see me.” (paragraph 2)

Explanation:

The two lines above show that Watson had become an expert in studying Holmes. In the first, Watson himself, admits that he knows every mood and habit of Holmes and how they told their own stories. He was able to deduce from them that Holmes was working again.

In the second line, Watson was able to deduce that Holmes was glad to see him even though his manner was not revealing this.
