Answer:
Book: The Jilting of Granny Weatherall
Author: Katherine Anne Porter
Sixty years earlier Ellen, or the dying grandma, was supposed to marry a man named George but he left her on the day of their wedding. Out of spite for George she married John and started a family with him.
The effect was that sixty years later she refuses that she is dying and she is also very harsh with ther family.
The option that best shows how to rewrite the phrase "the beards of the three men" with a possessive noun is:
A. The three men's beards.
- This question is about possessive nouns, also known as genitive case.
- The genitive case is generally formed by the addition of an apostrophe and the letter "s" to a noun. It serves to indicate that that noun owns something.
- An example is: My mother's car is the blue one. --> the noun "mother" owns the "car".
- When we have a plural noun, the general rule of using the apostrophe and the "s" may change a little.
- If the plural noun ends in an "s", we must only add the apostrophe. Examples: boys'; girls'; kids'; cats'.
- However, if the plural noun does not end in "s", we must <u>add both the apostrophe and the "s"</u>. Examples: men's; women's; children's.
- Having that in mind, we can see the option A is the correct one. "Men" <u>does not end in "s"</u>. Thus, we should write "men's".

Answer:
The detail that uses sensory words to describe Akela is:
C. out at full length on his rock.
Explanation:
Sensory words are words or phrases that appeal to one of more of our five senses: sight, smell, taste, touch, and hearing. Having that in mind, we can use elimination to answer this question:
A. a hilltop covered with stones and boulders - may appeal to sight, but does not refer to Akela. This option is incorrect.
B. who led all the Pack by strength and cunning - does refer to Akela, but does not appeal to any of the five senses. The words "strength" and "cunning" demand a different kind of interpretation from readers. This option is incorrect.
C. out at full length on his rock - this is the correct option. We can imagine Akela lying down on the rock; we can even see the position of his body because of this description. Imagine your dog or cat, for instance, lying down on the floor, with his/her belly's whole extension touching the floor.
D. from badger-coloured veterans - again, does appeal to the senses, but does not refer to Akela. This option is incorrect.
