ENGL140 -ALNASHMI, Abdulraouf - Week 7 2/4

I took 22-3 quiz. It was not as easy as 21-3 quiz, but I got 10 out of 10. It was about Pronoun-antecedent agreement. The question was Click on the better sentence, the one that does not have any problem of pronoun-antecedent agreement. There is many questions which was some of them easy. An American family is likely to have at least two cars in their garage. American families are likely to have at least two cars in their garages. The black color is the right answer because Both the pronoun their and its antecedent, families, are plural. Americans seem to be in love with their cars OR Everyone in America seems to be in love with their cars. If we think about the fact the green example is the right one because it couldn’t be everyone. The gas crisis of the early 1970s made every American driver aware of the gas mileage on their vehicles OR The gas crisis of the early 1970s made all American drivers aware of the gas mileage on their vehicles. The black one is the right answer because Both the pronoun their and its antecedent, drivers, are plural.
