Which sentence contains a pronoun with a vague or ambiguous antecedent?

rachel took her little brother to the playground.

after jerry dusted his bedroom, he vacuumed.

doug and matt painted their model airplanes.

From the above options, the sentence that actually contains a pronoun with a vague or ambiguous antecedent is: When Alicia picked up her sister, she was tired.

Pronoun antecedent actually refers to the word that a pronoun is referring to in a sentence. Pronouns should refer to their antecedents clearly. But when pronouns are not able to give a clear antecedent, it becomes ambiguous.

We see that in the sentence selected above, the pronoun has a vague or ambiguous antecedent. There are two pronouns and the last pronoun (she) is unclear who is being referred to (Alicia or her sister).

Answer:

your answer is d

Explanation:

(1) I sat anxiously yet still in my chair, waiting for the large door to swing open and the dentist’s assistant to shout, "Rachel, Rachel, you’re next!” (2) I was a bundle of nerves and could even hear the rhythmic ticking of the shiny clock above the receptionist’s window. (3) I wondered what the new dentist would be like and hoped he would be as nice as Dr. Jackson. (4) Finally, the door swung open and an unfamiliar man rushed into the waiting room with a brown clipboard, yelling, "Rachel? Rachel, you’re next!” (5) Here we go, I thought as I was herded into the small, yellow-walled examination room and into the large, cushioned reclining chair. (6) Finally, after a few minutes, Dr. Perez casually strolled in and I was pleasantly surprised to be instantly relaxed and comforted by her presence.

(7) After a long check-up, Dr. Perez dismissed my unwarranted fears that I might have several deep, cavernous cavities. (8) The walk home was a slow, relaxing, and pleasant conclusion to a long, stressful day.

Which sentence, if added after sentence 6, would best create a strong, descriptive image that helps to explain why Rachel feels comforted?

She was young yet carried herself with great confidence, and her clear eyes locked onto mine and oozed kindness.
Dr. Perez was the youngest-looking dentist I had ever seen. She looked to be only a few years older than me.
I knew that I would like Dr. Perez and would never again be so anxious before a dentist appointment.
Dr. Perez moved quickly around the room, quietly gathering her dental tools.

Read the excerpt from “The Monkey's Paw.”
"Might drop on his head from the sky," said the frivolous Herbert.
"Morris said the things happened so naturally," said his father, "that you might if you so wished attribute it to coincidence."
"Well, don't break into the money before I come back," said Herbert as he rose from the table. "I'm afraid it'll turn you into a mean, avaricious man, and we shall have to disown you."
His mother laughed, and following him to the door, watched him down the road; and returning to the breakfast table, was very happy at the expense of her husband's credulity. All of which did not prevent her from scurrying to the door at the postman's knock, nor prevent her from referring somewhat shortly to retired sergeant-majors . . . when she found that the post brought a tailor's bill.
