They say the people could fly. Say that long ago in Africa, some of the people knew magic. And they would walk up on the air lik

e climbin up on a gate. And they flew like blackbirds over the fields. Black, shiny wings flappin against the blue up there.
Then, many of the people were captured for Slavery. The ones that could fly shed their wings. They couldn’t take their wings across the water on the slave ships. Too crowded, don’t you know.
—“The People Could Fly,”
Virginia Hamilton

Which sentence uses a contraction or possessive form incorrectly?
liberstina [14]
<span>The sentence that uses a contraction or possessive form incorrectly is A. I can't believe your going to be in high school next year. The mistake here is the word your - it should be you're, because that is short for you are, and your is a pronoun denoting possession: your cat, your dog, but You're wrong, meaning You are wrong.The remaining sentences have no mistakes in them. </span>
