Identify the pronouns by clicking on them in the passage. The Statue of Liberty, standing at the entrance to New York City harbor, is the symbol of welcome to immigrants arriving in America. A gift from France in 1876, the monument marks America's 100-year anniversary of independence. This is the inscription at the base of the statue: Give me Your tired, your poor, Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free. The wretched refuse of your teeming shore, Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me: I lift my lamp beside the golden door.

Answer:

List of pronouns:

Sentence 3: "this", "me"

Sentence 4: "these", "me", "I"

Step-by-step explanation:

Pronouns replace nouns. There are different types of pronouns

Subject pronouns: replace the subject noun (I)

Object pronouns: these pronouns replace nouns acting as direct object (me)

Demonstrative pronouns: replace noun or noun phrase mentioned before (this, these)

The words "your" and "my" are not pronouns but determiners (or possesive adjectives) as they modify a noun but do not replace it.
