Third-Quarter Review
This stack will help you review for the 3rd-Quarter Summative Test.
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| What is the "case" of a pronoun? | This is subject, object, or possessive. |
| What is the subject case of a pronoun? | This pronoun refers to the person, place, or thing in a sentence. It's what the entire sentence is about. |
| What is the object case of a pronoun? | This pronoun refers to the person, place, or thing in a sentence that the action is taking place on. It refers back to the subject of the sentence in most cases. |
| What is the possessive case of a pronoun? | This pronoun shows ownership, but it does not have an apostrophe (its vs. it's). |
| What is a reflexive pronoun? | This pronoun must be in the sentence to make sense. (She cleaned the entire room all by herself.) |
| What is an intensive pronoun? | This pronoun does not need to be in the sentence. The sentence will still make sense without it. (I myself am going horseback riding.) |
| What is pronoun-antecedent agreement? | When the pronoun correctly matches the subject (noun or other pronoun) in the sentence, then this is true. |
| What are the forms of a pronoun that must be in agreement? | They are gender, number, and case. |
| How do you know when to say "She and I" or "Her and me"? | It depends if you are talking about the subject or the object of the sentence. I is always subject. Me is always the object. |
| What are indefinite pronouns? | They are the pronouns that do not have a clear reference to anyone or anything. (everybody, no one, most, all) |
| What is the proper agreement for the indefinite pronoun "everybody"? | That word always agrees with his/hers in possessive and him/her in object cases. It is a singular pronoun. |
| How do you know if "none" is plural or singular? | You have to look at the next noun to see if it is plural or singular. |
| Which is the pronoun version: they're, their, or there? | The pronoun is their. |
| When would you use a dash in a sentence? | This is most commonly used to show off a definition or example of something you are saying. It adds "drama" to the sentence. |
| When would you use parentheses in a sentence? | This is most commonly used to show the author's "internal" thought, an example, or a personal insight that doesn't really need to be in the sentence. |
| When would you use a semicolon in a sentence? | This ties two simple sentences together instead of using a comma and coordinating conjunction. It shows some really close connection between the two sentences. |
| What is the purpose of a subordinating conjunction? | Its purpose is to show the relationship, or connection, between two independent clauses. When you add it to an independent clause, it makes it into a dependent clause. |
| What does a complex sentence always have? | It has at least one independent and one dependent clause. It also always has a subordinating conjunction. |
| What does a compound sentence always have? | It has two independent clauses, a comma, and a coordinating conjunction. |
| What does a simple sentence (independent clause) always have? | It has a subject, a verb, and contains a complete thought. |
