Sagot :
Answer: The correct answer is:
_________________________
Choice: [A]: " The dog took its bone and ran into the house. "
_________
Explanation:
_________
Take note of the following text of:
_________
Choice [B]: " The dog took it's bone and ran into the dog house."
{Note: This answer choice is incorrect.}.
Note the contraction: " it's " ;
→ is used only in place of: " it is " — or; " it has. "
For: Choice: [B]:
Note that replacing given word:
" it's " — with: " it is " ; or:
— with: " it has "
→ do not make sense.
_____
Note: For the given information in:
Answer Choice: [B]:
_____
→ " The dog took it's {sic} bone and ran into the doghouse."
_____
First: Let's replace the " it's" with: Both:" it is " ; and:
with: " it has" .
_____
→ "{ The dog took it is bone and ran into the doghouse."}.
→ "{ The dog took it has bone and ran into the doghouse."}.
_____
{Note: This does not only make sense within conversation—{nor, for that matter—in written from—but furthermore is not "grammatically correct"—{since inserting a "conjugated verb with a subject"}—such as:
→ " it has" ; or;
→ " it is " ; [especially within an already written sentence with a clear "subject or subject pronoun"— along with a correspording "predicate."}.
_____
So, we can Rule out: "Answer Choice: [B]."
_______
Now: Let's check: Choice: [C]:
_______
" The dog took its' bone and ran into the doghouse."
→ {Note: This answer choice is incorrect.}.
Note: We never use the "word" — its' {sic} —under any circumstances—even to denote a "possessive sense"—and NOT as a "contraction."
→ One does NOT use any: {"contraction(s) / apostrophes"} ;
→ even to denote a "{possessive sense."}.
To the contrary, in ^these situations:
→ We simply write the word as: " its " .
_____
→ which explains why:
→ Answer Choice: [A]: " The dog took its bone and ran into house."
→ is the correct answer!
_____
{Personal note of advice: For academic and formal writng:
For: "it is" ; or: "it has" ; always write the words.
And, on that note: Also contractions should be written out.
For example: "can't" should be written as: "cannot" (one word).
The word: "won't" ; should be: "will not."
_______
Put simply:
In formal or academic writing—avoid all contractions—[unless you are quoting a source that contains contractions.]/
When trying to write: " it is " ; or, " it has " ; do not use: " it's " ; just write the actual words. When trying to write: " its " —in a "possessive sense" — simply write: " its " .
