Which word does the pronoun "it" refer to in the sentence? A kettle is a metal container used to boil water. Some kettles go on

the stovetop, while some can be plugged into an electrical outlet. A kettle is filled with liquid, usually water, and placed on a heat source, so that the liquid inside of it will begin to boil. Once the water boils, steam is forced through two small holes in the spout of the kettle, causing a high-pitched whistling sound.

Answer:

kettle

Explanation:

A pronoun is a word that is used to denote a noun to avoid the repetition of the noun. The noun instead of which the pronoun is used is said to be an antecedent.  

In the given excerpt, 'kettle' is the noun. In every new sentence, the noun 'kettle' has been repeated. Instead of the repetition of the noun 'kettle', the pronoun 'it' can be used. For singular noun 'kettle', the pronoun 'it' will be used and for plural noun 'kettles', the pronoun 'they' will be used.

"It's raining cats and dogs"

"The rain is as cold as ice"

"It's so cold, we might be in Antarctica"

"Winter is as freezing as a polar bear's home"

"The sun won't shine until it is a million years later"

These are just some idioms. These include similes and metaphors.

Here's a short story.

Kaleb walked outside. "Oh, Mom, it's raining cats and dogs- how am I going to use my kite?" He shut the door, not letting the rain come in. "Not only that- the rain is as cold as ice. It's 22 degrees!" Kaleb's mom said. "Oh no, this wasn't the right time to buy a kite. Winter is as freezing as a polar bear's home, I hate this so much!" Kaleb said. "Oh, Kaleb, don't be so sad," said Kaleb's dad. "We can find a day, maybe tomorrow. It's windy tomorrow." "Oh, be quiet! It's raining all week! It will also be cold! It's so cold, we might be in Antarctica!" Kaleb's aunt (his dad's side) said. "Oh, man," Kaleb's dad said. Kaleb sighed, and put his kite away. "The sun won't shine until it is a million years later," he said.

leonid [27]

Answer:

Explanation

Refinishing furniture is a creative hobby, but not everyone loves to scour garage sales to find old items.

Going to flea markets can help you to notice unique qualities in used items; beauty can be found where you least expect it.

Specialized equipment can make the refinishing process easier, therefore, painting the furniture can be creative with the right tools.

Some people like refinishing old furniture, others prefer buying new items.
