Answer:

The kind of error that occurs is:

B. a pronoun shift error.

Explanation:

Take a look at the following sentence:

"One could have done better if we had studied harder."

See how the sentence begins by using "one" and then suddenly shifts to "we"? This is an example of a pronoun shift error. The pronoun "we" does not agree with "one".

Let's analyze another example:

"Someone is knocking; and they seem to be in a hurry."

Although that is a common structure in colloquial speech, it is incorrect. "Someone" is a third-person singular word, so the pronouns that refer to it should be "he" or "she". "They" is a third-person plural pronoun. Therefore, this example too shows a pronoun shift error.

Explanation:

<h2>The vase</h2>

When I was 9 I used to be a really active kid who would not stand on one place and always twist, turn, talk, and my parents often let me by myself which means I was playing all alone and our house was big like 3 floors, my parents were at the 3rd one while i played by myself on the first one. We had a room that connected with another room by a little window on top of the wall about 50in×50in and i would climb back and forth to the room and back, and beside the window there was a table (really high table actually) and i think it was so high just to avoid me. By the name of this article you can understand that when I was climbing in the room i acsidently hit it with my leg and it fell and broke into a million pieces. I left it there and left thinking nothing would happen. Later that day my dad called me and my other 4 siblings to ask who was it, of course i said no and my little brother got suspended by his iPad, i still didn't tell my parents by the time I am 13 and i feel pretty bad.

Please dm me on in sta gram Vv_mcr7 for the money, i really need it:)
