Read the sentences and drag each pronoun into the
correct category.
My brother and I are making dinner for [ourselves] and
our parents. I [myself] am making the dessert! Our
parents are controlling [themselves] and have not tried even once to tell us how to cook. They say they have
faith in us, but the meal [itself{ will prove whether we
are good cooks.
[words in brackets need to be put in "reflexive pronoun" or "intensive pronoun"
Answer:
Reflexive pronouns in the passage: ourselves, themselves.
Intensive pronouns in the passage: myself, itself.
Explanation:
Both reflexive and intensive pronouns end in -self or -selves. The difference lies in the way they are used, according to the context. Reflexive pronouns indicate that the same person or thing is both the subject and the object of the verb. A common example is:
- I cut myself. --> I am the one who performed the action of cutting. I am also the one who was cut.
Intensive pronouns, on the other hand, emphasize the importance of something or someone. They are usually not essential to convey meaning in the sentence. For example:
- The president himself addressed the issue. --> Emphasis on the fact that is was the president, rather than any other person.
An easy way to distinguish between the two types of pronouns is by their position in the sentence. Intensive pronouns come right after the noun they refer to. Reflexive pronouns come after the verb or a preposition. Having that in mind, we can answer:
Reflexive pronouns in the passage: ourselves, themselves.
Intensive pronouns in the passage: myself, itself.
Answer:
Reflexive:
ourselves
themselves
Intensive:
myself
itself

Sonnet 60 & the mowers song. Which sentence best summarizes the theme shared by both poems?
A. Nature is extremely powerful.
B. Love withers like beautiful flowers.
C. Mowers have a difficult job.
D. Time changes all aspects of life.
Answer:
D. Time changes all aspects of life
Explanation:
Shakespeare in Sonnet 60 describes the changes that come with time. In making these changes, the poet makes comparisons with nature. He compared the passage of time with the waves and tides which rush to replace each other. He also compares human life to the beautiful rise of the sun and its subsequent fall.
In Mower's Song, the poet also has strong ties with nature which are soon overshadowed by the presence of a girl. In time, he forgets about the grasses but they seem to be doing well without him who is now smitten by the girl's love. These two poems show that time changes all aspects of life.

Read the excerpt from Justice Curtis’s dissenting opinion, then answer the question that follows.
Slavery, being contrary to natural right, is created only by municipal law. This is not only plain in itself, and agreed by all writers on the subject, but is inferable from the Constitution, and has been explicitly declared by this court. The Constitution refers to slaves as “persons held to service in one State, under the laws thereof.” . . . .
. . . It was certainly understood by the Convention which framed the Constitution, and has been so understood ever since, that, under the power to regulate commerce, Congress could prohibit the importation of slaves; and the exercise of the power was restrained till 1808. A citizen of the United States owns slaves in Cuba, and brings them to the United States, where they are set free by the legislation of Congress. Does this legislation deprive him of his property without due process of law? If so, what becomes of the laws prohibiting the slave trade? If not, how can a similar regulation respecting a Territory violate the fifth amendment of the Constitution? . . . .
For these reasons, I am of opinion that so much of the several acts of Congress as prohibited slavery and involuntary servitude within that part of the Territory of Wisconsin . . . were constitutional and valid laws.
–Dissenting opinion on Dred Scott v. Sandford,
Justice Benjamin Curtis

i have a dog or cat residing at your home? If the answer is yes, be sure you
keep onions out of your pet's reach. Onions contain an ingredient called
thiosulfate. While this ingredient is perfectly safe for humans, it is toxic to cats and
dogs. Thiosulfate weakens a cat or dog's red blood cells. If your pet consumes
enough onions, the red blood cells can even burst! As you can see, the accidental
ingestion of onions by your dog or cat can result in worrisome consequences.
