Answer:

My little sister wants to work in television news when she grows up,  because she says it's a way to affect people's lives.

Explanation:

In grammar, the use of correct tenses, as well as the spellings and punctuation, are all part of the 'error detection and elimination' process. This means that a check in the spelling and punctuation used will ensure that any sentence is correct and constructed.

In the given original sentence, the spelling error is found in the word "its". Here, the word "its" should be replaced with "it's", referring to the "it is" in the contracted form. This is because the word "it is" refers to the act of working in the television news.

Thus, the correct answer is the third option.

In beowulf why is it that grendel did not dare to touch the kings throne
stellarik [79]
In the binary (good vs. evil) epic world of Beowulf, the king is a defender of law and order, and Grendel is the villain who challenges these principles. But neither the king nor Grendel act on their own. The king is God's representative on Earth and a protector of all his subjects. On the other hand, Grendel is not an ordinary villain or a monster. He is the descendant of Cain, Biblical figure who killed his own brother. As a creature of hell, he mustn't touch the king's throne, which is God's endowment. In other words, the one who symbolizes the Devil must stay away from God's symbols.
