Answer:

3. Participle: pulling

Modifying: his

...pulling his coarse woolen cloak...

4. Participle: resumed

Modifying: his

...resumed his seat.

Step-by-step explanation:

The above highlighted words are the participles and the pronouns that they are modifying.

Participle is known to be a verb form which can used as an adjective and also used to create verb tense. It can also be used to create a passive voice. In English Language, there are two types of participles and they are:

1. Present Participle: e.g. pulling

This type end in -ing

2. Past Participle: e.g. resumed

This type end in -ed, -d, -t, -en, or -n

So, in No. 4, "resumed" is the the participle there.
