Answer:

A. The baby's bottle was empty.

Explanation:

Possessive nouns are nouns used to show ownership, i.e. that something owns something else. In most cases, a possessive noun is formed by adding an apostrophe and s to the noun. If the noun is plural and already ends in s, only an apostrophe is added.

The sentence that contains a properly written possessive noun is sentence A. The bottle is owned by the baby. An apostrophe and s are properly added to this noun.

In sentence B, the apostrophe should be placed before s in girls'. If the noun was plural, it would've been correct, but it is singular.

In sentence C, there is no possessive noun.

In sentence D, the apostrophe should be placed before s in mens'. Men is the plural form of man, and the possessive form is men's.

Explanation:

The above description of a style of learning refers to the audio-lingual method of learning. In this style of learning, the teacher provides the standard method of pronouncing certain words to the students, who are now expected to tow the same path by repeating the words or sentences. When correctly pronounced, the teacher provides reinforcement through positive feedback. However, when the student fails in the right pronunciation, the teacher provides negative feedback.

Language labs are also a major factor in this learning method. In language labs, students have access to audio and audio-visual materials for learning. Grammar instead of vocabulary is also the main focus of this system of learning.
