Answer:

The correct answer is b. the witnesses' testimonies.

Explanation:

in the English grammar exists what is called the Saxon Genitive or Possessive 's.  It is used to indicate possession and one of the rules is that if the possessor is a regular plural noun that uses the s at the end, the apostrophe is used at the end. In this case, the noun "witnesses" is a plural noun and the S has to be placed at the end, and then comes the object that is possessed.

7. Rose says, "I've got eighteen years of my life invested in you." What does she mean?
pav-90 [236]

Answer:

Missing a little context here, but I'll assume it's a mom talking to a rebellious teen, or similar. (sorry if I got it wrong.)

I would assume that a frustrated mother is talking to a brand new adult that is now refusing to obey their mother. Or something like that. So, she is guilting them by saying how many years of her life she spent on them. All that time she could have spent doing something else, but instead, she invested it in them, and this is what she is getting out of it?
