3.a. Pam, my Aunt, will be visiting us this weekend or [b. My aunt Pam will be visiting us this weekend or [c.My Aunt Pam will be visiting us this weekend or [d.none of these?

Answer 1

1. b
2. c
3. a, b, c.
I taught Junior High English for a few years... I think you meant for 3c to be both a & b. Although b is better, a is technically correct.

Answer 2

1) b
2) c
3) ummm b and c are the same ... except for no full stops - oh I see aunt and Aunt ...


Oh yeah - no full stops on 1 or 2 either

Guess it is
1) d
2) d
3) d

but the rest of the sentence structures are okay. Oh, and for number 3, if there was a full stop at the end then a or c are usually true for sticklers who capitalise Aunt and Uncle, Mom and Dad... but I don't actually see much wrong with b either.

Answer 3

For #1 it's B
For #2 D none It should be two sentences OR have a semi-colon after hours
For # 3 it's C only

Answer 4

1. B = Singular indefinite pronouns take singular verbs or singular personal pronouns.
= Singular: another, anybody, anyone, anything, each, either, everybody, everyone, everything, little, much, neither, nobody, no one, nothing, one, other, somebody, someone, something

Plural: both, few, many, others, several

Singular or Plural: all, any, more, most, none, some
