What is pronoun ?'A pronoun is a word used to refer to someone or something when a noun is not required, usually because the person or thing has already been mentioned. Examples include 'it,"she,"something,' and'myself.'
A plural pronoun is a pronoun that replaces a group of nouns or a plural noun. Plural pronouns do not have singular forms; they are distinct words that substitute for plural nouns.
After all, your name has nothing to do with your gender or personal gender pronouns. Fortunately, using the singular they makes English more efficient and helps us avoid awkward sentence structures.
Thus, WALNUTS have a hard shell, its plural pronoun is seeds have hard shells.

Read the excerpt from Act II, scene v of Romeo and Juliet.
Friar Laurence: These violent delights have violent ends,
And in their triumph die, like fire and powder,
Which, as they kiss consume: the sweetest honey
Is loathsome in his own deliciousness
And in the taste confounds the appetite:
Therefore love moderately; long love doth so;
Too swift arrives as tardy as too slow.
Which is an example of a paradox within the excerpt?

Does the VERB agree with the SUBJECT in this sentence?
My friends have given me good advice.
A.
Yes
B.
No
Answer:
A. Yes
Explanation:
Since the subject of this sentence is plural, that means the verb must fit with a plural subject. In this sentence, "have given" is the correct term to go with the plural "my friends." If the subject was singular, the sentence would read, "My friend has given me good advice." However, since "my friends" is plural, "has given" would be incorrect. The sentence is correct in using "have given."

What would you do if you could fly? (at least 200 words)
Answer:
A lot of people would hate you.
I mean, flying would be great! We all love bird’s-eye views of locations, so you’d be getting that anytime you wanted!
Of course, the problem would be that it might only be just you who can fly, and if it’s only you, then there will be someone who wants the powers you have. And since everyone wants to fly, almost everyone would want your powers.
Though there are people who want what others have already, when it comes to flying, it could be your downfall. You could be chased out of countries, and that would be an extreme hassle.
The worst part is that since you’re already a citizen of a country, you can’t just fly to other countries since you’d require a visa. As ridiculous as that sounds, that would be the reality. On top of that, you wouldn’t even be allowed to fly over your country as that is restricted airspace and requires a license to be flown over.
One way to make sure these laws don’t apply would be to disguise your identity, vigilante-style, but that would make you a serial trespasser, who would then be the prime target of the world police. You’d pretty much be screwed.
And if you flew too high, you’d run out of oxygen and pass out, and then you’d fall back to Earth and probably die. If you pushed hard enough to reach space, the vacuum would kill you instead, so you can leave Earth. If by some miracle you did and survived, then where would you go? You couldn’t enter the ISS, since they only open the airlock for astronauts, not random flying people. But getting to the ISS is virtually impossible because you would die before you got there, even if you could stay conscious.
Even though flying is great in concept, in reality, you’d be restricted by international laws and the other rules in place. There wouldn’t even be a point of being able to fly.

GERRARD : You're not particularly decorative.
INTRUDER : No! Well, that goes for you, too. I've only got to wear specs and
I'll be enough like you to get away with it.
GERRARD : What about your clothes? They'll let you down if you're not careful.
Answer:
Gerrard said the intruder was not particularly decorative. The intruder then stated that that also went for Gerrard, and that he, the intruder, only had to wear specs and he would be enough like Gerrard to get away with it. Gerrard asked the intruder about his clothes, saying they would let him down if he were not careful.
Explanation:
Indirect speech is used to report what someone said. Verbs such as "say", "tell", "ask", "inquire", and "order", among others, are commonly used. In general, when we report, we use the past tense of the original tense used by the speaker. For instance, if the speaker used the simple present, we normally report it in the simple past. If the speaker used the present perfect, we use the past perfect. We also eliminate quotation marks and change the pronoun that refers to the subject ("I" usually becomes "he" or "she"; "we" usually becomes "they"). If expressions of time were used, we must also see that they change accordingly ("yesterday" becomes "the day before")

Jasper Goes to Ecuador
It was clear from the start that this was a doomed voyage, but Jasper could not perceive this truth. He forged onward despite protests from
his mother and all his acquaintances. In a great hurry, he made arrangements with ship captains, secured goods for the trip, and generally worked
himself into a breathless mess by noon. He was a comical sight on the docks, his cap nearly blown off his head, his trousers half held up by ratty
suspenders. But he was oblivious to the figure he cut.
He had awoken on this unlucky Tuesday with an idea in his mind so bright it was is if the stars themselves had lodged it there: he must sail
to Ecuador and join his older brother Thomas on his quest for the lost city. That he had not heard from Thomas in over six months and had
absolutely no idea where in Ecuador Thomas might be found did little to dissuade Jasper. "How big could Ecuador possibly be?" he speculated to
himself. "It couldn't be much larger than New York! I will surely ask around and find him promptly." Jasper was, if nothing else, a positive thinker,

Which detail best supports the inference that James Watt could not have made the improvement to his steam engine without the assistance of Matthew Boulton? The Steam Engine James Watt, who secured the position as a maker of scientific instruments in the University of Glasgow, proposed an idea for improving the existing steam engine, which was used for pumping mines. For a long time, owing to a lack of money, he had difficulty in establishing the merits of his improvements. Finally, he formed a partnership with Matthew Boulton, a wealthy and energetic man who lived at Birmingham, England. They began the manufacture of steam engines at Birmingham, under the firm name of Boulton and Watt. This partnership was very successful. Watt supplied the inventions; Boulton furnished the money and attended to the business. Before the time of Watt, the steam engine was exclusively a steam pump—slow and wasteful of fuel. Watt made it a quick, powerful, and efficient engine, requiring only a fourth as much fuel as before. Under his first patent, the engine was still used only as a steam pump, but his later improvements adapted it for driving stationary machinery of all kinds. The commercial success of his engine was soon fully established.
Answer:
Watt supplied the inventions; Boulton furnished the money and attended to the business.
The detail which best supports the inference that James Watt could not have made the improvement to his steam engine without the assistance of Matthew Boulton is:
Watt supplied the inventions; Boulton furnished the money and attended to the business.What is an Inference?This refers to the use of evidence which are formed from a set of premise to come to a conclusion about something.
With this in mind and from the given text, we can see that the detail which was used by the author to support the inference that there could not have been an improvement to the steam engine is that Watt and Boulton were in partnership.

Which two sentences in this excerpt from Ernest Hemingway's "In Another Country" show that medals and awards in war don’t always bring soldiers glory and acceptance?
The boys at first were very polite about my medals and asked me what I had done to get them. I showed them the papers, which were written in very beautiful language and full of fratellanza and abnegazione , but which really said, with the adjectives removed, that I had been given the medals because I was an American. After that their manner changed a little toward me, although I was their friend against outsiders. I was a friend, but I was never really one of them after they had read the citations, because it had been different with them and they had done very different things to get their medals. I had been wounded, it was true; but we all knew that being wounded, after all, was really an accident.
