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.

Why is Lennie so reluctant to talk to Curley's wife?
lora16 [44]

Lennie is so reluctant to talk to Curley's wife because he is aware of her potential for trouble, and George has advised him to avoid her.

  • Lennie gets upset with Curley's wife because he believes George will hear her yelling and come to check on him. Lennie ends up breaking Curley's wife's neck as a result.
  • Lennie replies that he thinks Curley's wife is "purty," prompting George to warn Lennie to stay away from her, just as he's supposed to stay away from Curley, after he calls Curley's wife a "tramp."
  • George warns Lennie that the water might not be good when he saunters up to the edge of the pool and starts to drink like a ravenous animal. Lennie has a mental illness, making it necessary for him to be given this advice because he is unaware of any potential risks. George cautions Lennie not to say anything when they arrive as the two are traveling to a ranch where they can find temporary employment. Lennie has a very short memory, so George has to make him repeat even the most basic instructions.

Thus this is why Lennie is so reluctant to talk to Curley's wife.
