Identify the pronoun which has an unclear antecedent in the following sentence, if one exists.
After you give the balls to the players, let me take a look at them.
a. you
b. me
c. them
d. all pronouns have clear antecedents
How do I answer this question? I am super confused.
I got it now thank you Writeacher! The right answer would be c. them because we do not know if it is referring to the players or the balls.
For the 2022 Texas COnnections Acadamy Quick Check, these are the answer...
1. foretold
2. the death of Abdul-Karim
3. the possibility of one culture overcoming the other
4. them
5. their
Exactly!
