I'm pretty sure the answer is D x :)
The correct way to write the quotation part of the sentence is: mother-in-law's. The correct answer is option C. The sentence would be written like this: My mother-in-law's blueberry pie won first place at the county fair. We used the 's because it shows ownership or possession. The blueberry pie is owned by the mother-in-law.
I believe the correct answer is - A counterclaim is an opposing idea or opinion.
In an argument, or a debate, the first speaker is going to say what he or she thinks, and then you can present your own rebuttal. This rebuttal is formally known as a counterclaim - if you don't agree with the first speaker's ideas, you can present your own, which are usually opposing.
<span>"It took them a minute to grasp what he was saying, even who he was. " This line gives us a hint that they probably had forgotten about Ravi because they tried so hard to remember who he was.And indeed, the next sentence which says "They had quite forgotten him." confirms that they definitely had completely forgotten about him.
The sentence at the end of the paragraph - "</span><span>Having disappeared from the scene, he had disappeared from their minds." gives us an idea that Ravi was completely wiped out from the children's minds, which is a saddening truth. </span>
