3. Revise and edit the paragraph. Ensure that it uses correct pronoun-antecedent

agreement.
When Steinbeck shifts the setting to the moving car though, we learn different
things about Elisa. For example, when the car passes the stranger's team of
livestock, Elisa makes an important gesture by turning away from them,
showing her internal struggle. The road setting also reveals Elisa's vulnerable
side. One of the story's final paragraphs depicts Elisa huddled in her coat and
crying as the car continues to speed along. Without this new setting, Elisa
might never have learned the true intentions of the stranger. Each of the
details of the setting that Steinbeck focuses on reveals Elisa's vulnerability in
their own way.
