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.

Which of the following sentences is punctuated correctly?
nignag [31]

1. The correct answer is A. Melissa said that she would never go on a cruise.


B is incorrect because the question mark has to be inside the quotation marks, not outside of it. C is incorrect because there has to be a comma after the word <em>replied, </em>and there is none. This leaves us with sentence A, which is the correct answer here - it is the correct reported speech.


2. The correct answer is B. Li promised to cut back but asked, “Can I have one soft drink at dinner?”


A is incorrect because you don't need quotation marks for this, or you would have to delete the word <em>to </em>and add a comma, leaving quotation marks in order for this sentence to be correct. C is incorrect because the word <em>sure </em>also has to be inside quotation marks. Therefore, the correct option is B.
