which sentence is missing an antecedent?
1. roberta has left the water on in her bathroom
2. richard has paid his field trip money
3. you must turn in your forms, or it wont happen
4. you should carry your wallet at all times

The correct answer is 3. You must turn in your forms, or it won't happen

Explanation:

In grammar, an antecedent is a subject, pronoun or another type of word or words usually at the beginning of a sentence that gives meaning to another word, phrase or other. This implies the antecedent is a word that precedes or come before another word whose meaning is the same or is linked to the antecedent. For example, in the sentence "I love my sister" the antecedence is "I" as it gives meaning to "my sister" whose meaning depends on the "I" and it is directly connected to it. In the case of "You must turn in your forms, or it won't happen" the antecedent should be the first part of the sentence "you must turn in your forms" but it is followed by "or it won't happen" whose meaning is not connected to the possible antecedent and does not depend on it, because of this, as there is not a relationship between one part and there other there is not an antecedent as in the second part there is no reference of the first one.

the correct answer is c. he speculates on what might happen at given points in the future in a world without people. alan h. weisman is an american author, professor, and journalist. authors organize their information with a purpose. they present their ideas in an organized way. this is called text structure. weisman uses text structure so as to improve overall comprehension and to prove his points.

i will in cassio’s lodging lose this napkin

and let him find it. trifles light as air

are to the jealous confirmations strong

as proofs of holy writ. this may do something.

335the moor already changes with my poison.

dangerous conceits are in their natures poisons

which at the first are scarce found to distaste,

but with a little act upon the blood

burn like the mines of sulfur.

i’ll leave this handkerchief at cassio’s house and let him find it.to a jealous man, a meaningless little thing like this looks like absolute proof. this handkerchief may be useful to me. the moor’s mind has already become infected with my poisonous suggestions. ideas can be like poisons. at first they hardly even taste bad, but once they get into your blood they start burning like hot lava.
