Choose the main grammatical or stylistic error that you find in the bolded sentence below. You will choose one mistake.


Learning to play an instrument can be rewarding and life-altering.***The joys a pianist receives when they accompany a choir of singers can make her years of practice and lessons all worthwhile.*** Playing the flute in a marching band will always and forever make the flutist feel like she is a small but important part of a fun parade or really, really memorable sports event. Colleges pursue excellent musicians and they offer a compelling scholarship if the student commits to performing in the college’s marching band or symphony orchestra. Colleges need to lower tuition costs. These scholarships can give students the opportunity to affordably attend a college and open the door for a great future. Success should be expected by diligent and focused musicians; that’s the truth of the matter!




A) Subject-verb agreement error


B) Pronoun-antecedent agreement error


C) Run-on


D) Comma splice


E) Fragment


F) Wordiness


G) Passive voice


H) Sentence that doesn’t fit in the paragraph

Answers

Answer 1
I think the answer is F
Answer 2

B) Pronoun-antecedent agreement error

Pronoun-antecedent agreement is when a pronoun agrees in usage with its antecedent.

If the noun is a subject noun, it must be replaced by a subject pronoun

If the noun is masculine, the pronoun should be masculine, and vice-versa

If the antecedent is a singular noun, it should be replaced by a singular pronoun

The sentence is not consistent in its use of pronouns to represent the subject.

The sentence starts by representing the pianist with the pronoun "They"

"The joys a pianist receives when they accompany a choir of singers........."

It proceeds in the remainder of the sentence by referring to the same pianist using the pronoun "her"

"....can make her years of practice and lessons all worthwhile."

This inconsistency in the use of pronoun can be referred to as Pronoun-antecedent agreement error

Answer:

B.

Explanation:

         A prime example of foreshadowing; is that it gives, us the reader[s], hints. As well as including tone indicators of what may follow up afterwards. So, with the reader being introduced to a character being snarky and bragging about how they “will” earn a position that they themselves desire— meaning, via foreshadow, that it would not be unlikely for this stated character to NOT get this position.

(Because this can also cause conflict in a story and add more elements to it If a reader is paying good enough attention to what they’re reading in the first place.)

Also, A. C. D. are too vague in description for a foreshadowing event, (like stated in B.) to properly happen.
