This question is missing the options. I've found the complete question online. It is the following:

Complete the sentence with an appropriate intensive pronouns.

Diana found the story difficult to believe______________.

A. she

B. itself

C. herself

Answer:

Diana found the story difficult to believe herself.

Explanation:

<u>Intensive pronouns are used to emphasize the nouns they refer to.</u> We need to be careful because intensive pronouns and reflexive pronouns are actually the same - myself, yourself, himself, etc. It is the use in context that differs.

In the sentence we are supposed to complete, we need to choose the appropriate intensive pronoun among the options. <u>Since "she" is a subject pronoun, we can already eliminate it. If we use "itself", we will be emphasizing "story". However, the person who has difficulty believing the story is Diana. She is the one who should be emphasized. Therefore, we can eliminate "itself" and safely choose "herself".</u>

Diana found the story difficult to believe herself.

I believe his anger disappeared, as he too wanted to patch things up.
This has to do with Milton's Paradise Lost, where Eve ate from the Tree of Knowledge, and then made Adam do it as well, which caused them to fall from grace. She started apologizing to Adam, saying that it was in fact her own fault, and because they loved each other, he forgave her because he wanted to be with his wife again.
