Which word describes antigone's attitude as she faces death?

a) frightened
b) defiant
c) regretful
d) joyful

The correct answer is option B) "Defiant". In "Antigone" by Sophocles, the story of Antigone and her sister Ismene is presented, two sisters that have to deal with his brother being sentenced to death because he was declared a traitor by king Creon. The attitude that Antigone took after realizing that she was facing her own death was defiant, since when she was talking with her brother she said that her life was in her own hands implying that she would fight for her life.

the pronoun reference replaces a noun, but you have to make sure there's no room for confusion.

in the first sentence "her" could be referring to shely or to the sister. the answer there is "shelly called her sister and told her about the new baby."

in the second sentence "it" could be referring to the roof or the floor. the answer there is "since the roof leaks on the family room floor, we need to repair the roof."
