Question

Name the pronoun(s) in the following sentence. The high school graduate accepted the diploma proudly. She had worked hard for it. a she b diploma c it d she; it

Answer 1

The pronoun(s) is/are: she; it

Step-by-step explanation:

Process of elimination: it can't be diploma because that's a noun. She is a pronoun so we know it's either a. or d. It is also a pronoun so the answer is D. She; it.

A pronoun is a word that can function by itself as a noun phrase and that refers either to the participants in the discourse (e.g., I, you ) or to someone (or something) mentioned elsewhere in the discourse (a formal discussion of a topic in speech or writing) (e.g., she, it, this ).

So, the pronouns are she and it. Therefore, it's D.
