Yesterday I cleaned my closet and dusted it thoroughly. I found receipts in a few of my jeans. I folded them neatly and put them

in my drawer. I found an old box decorated with ribbons and a pink bow. It still looked pretty and new. In the bottom drawer, there was a bottle of perfume that Mom bought in Sweden. The perfume is old, but it still has a fresh, flowery scent. Next to the perfume there was an old postcard that Dad sent when he visited China.

Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:

Yesterday I cleaned my closet and dusted it thoroughly. I found receipts in a few of my jeans. I folded them neatly and put them in my drawer. I found an old box decorated with ribbons and a pink bow. It still looked pretty and new. In the bottom drawer, there was a bottle of perfume that Mom bought in Sweden. The perfume is old, but it still has a fresh, flowery scent. Next to the perfume there was an old postcard that Dad sent when he visited China.

Which two pronouns in the paragraph have unclear antecedents?

Answer:

The pronouns "this" and "it" have unclear antecedents.

Explanation:

The precedent of a pronoun is the word to which the pronoun is referring. When the pronoun has an unclear and defined precedent it means that it may be referring to more than one term in the text and it is not possible to identify which term it is.

In the text shown in the question above, we have two examples of pronouns with unclear antecedents. The first example is the pronoun "them" in the phrase "I found receipts in a few of my jeans. I folded them neatly and put them in my drawer," where the pronoun can refer to both the word "receipts" and the word " jeans".

The second example is found in the pronoun "it", in the phrase "I found an old box decorated with ribbons and a pink bow. It still looked pretty and new," where the first name can refer to both the word "box" and the word "bow".
