ENGL140 -ALNASHMI, Abdulraouf - Week 8 4/4

I took 13-5 quiz. It was about Shifts: person and number. It was normal quiz not too hard. The first question was so easy ex. After the summer's drought had dried up the water in the woods around our town, (we , you) began to see skunks everywhere. I knew the answer is we because they said our town which the sentence after the comma must be we. If they said your them town the next sentence is going to start with they. I also learned new word which was skunks. It is a small black-and-white North American animal that produces a very strong and unpleasant smell when it is frightened or in danger. The questions were about skunks. I had a mistake which was misunderstanding for me. The question was When a skunk is desperate, they show little fear, Or When a skunk is desperate, it shows little fear. I chose the first one because I felt in my mind it is right, but I was wrong because The sentence shifts from the singular skunk to the plural they.
