Answer:
B. The composer's faith in the instrument and his knowledge of it played an important role in his success as a solo performer.
Explanation:
Option B is the correct answer. It is correct pronoun-antecedent agreement.
We all know that a pronoun is a word used instead of a noun. An antecedent is known to be a word which a pronoun stands for in a sentence.
For example, in the sentence above, the antecedent is the "composer" and the pronoun that refers to the antecedent is "his". We can see that the pronoun agrees with the antecedent. In pronoun-antecedent, the pronoun in the sentence must agree with its antecedent in number. This means that a singular pronoun must replace a singular noun while plural pronoun must replace a plural noun.
Answer:
D. Gloomy.
Explanation:
James Joyce's "Portrait Of An Artist As A Young Man" follows the life of the protagonist Stephen Dedalus, focusing on his intellectual and religious awakening. At the same time, it also deals with the themes of betrayal, alienation, and finding his identity on his way to becoming the famous person he will be.
As seen in the given passage from the text, we see a young Stephen among other boys on the playground. While the others were playing football, he remained on the sidelines, <em>"out of sight of his captain, out of the reach of the rude feet, pretending to run now and then"</em>. Added to that, the narrator states that the <em>"evening air was pale and chilly"</em>. Through these words, we can know that the <u>scene's mood is gloomy</u>, with no real sense of happiness or excitement in the young Stephen.
This is a regular sentence. (A)
D, wind wolf should be treated fairly with respect
