Alifa Rifaat's short story "Another Evening at the Club" paints a clear picture of the powerless, inferior role of women in Egyptian society: the main character Samia is trapped in an arranged marriage in which she is repeatedly forced into betraying her own values and beliefs.

For example, when Bey, her husband, says to Samia "Tell people you're from the well-known Barakat family and that your father was a judge," she is obliged to lie about her own family's social status, in spite of how she was raised to be an honest person, just for the sake of making Bey look more important in the public eye.

In the end, Bey forces Samia into the ultimate act of dishonesty: protecting a lie that is causing their servant to be tortured, only to avoid his husband's embarrassment, when he says "By now the whole town knows the servant stole the ring—or would you like me to tell everyone: 'Look,folks, the fact is that the wife got a bit tiddly on a couple of sips of beer and the ring took off on its own and hid itself behind the dressing-table."

Which sentence has a pronoun with an unclear, missing, or confusing antecedent?

Ghella [55]

I believe it would be B, because there are two subjects that the speaker is referring to at the beginning of the sentence; the caterpillar and the leaf. When they use the word "it" in the second half of the sentence it is unclear whether they mean to say if "it" is the leaf or the caterpillar which they are carrying to their brother.

Answer:

Hi! The answer is Transition Words.

Explanation:

What are the components of good transition sentences? They make an explicit connection between ideas, sentences, and paragraphs.

Good transitions use specific words. Try to avoid using pronouns like “this” to refer to an entire idea because it is not always clear who or what

“this” refers to.

Here's a list of some more transitions words -

And, in addition to, furthermore, moreover, besides, than, too, also, both-and, another, equally important, first, second, etc., again, further, last, finally, not only-but also, as well as, in the second place, next, likewise, similarly, in fact, as a result, consequently, in the same way, for example.

Hope this helped!
