Sentence:

Although it was old and needed a lot of work,

Carla knew this was the house for her.

15. In this sentence, what is the

antecedent of the pronoun it?

O A. work

O B. house

O C. Carla

O D. her

The answer is B.

Explanation:

Pronouns are part of speech whose function is to replace nouns. Therefore antecedent is a noun that was replaced by a pronoun.

For example, I love chocolate because it makes me happy.

In this example, we use the pronoun it to avoid repeating the noun chocolate.

In this question the object labelled old and in a need of a lot of work was the house.
