Fix the sentence by following the apostrophe rule. The books story was pretty exciting, even though its cover was not. A. The books' story was pretty exciting, even though its cover was not. B. The book's story was pretty exciting, even though it's cover was not. C. The book's story was pretty exciting, even though its cover was not. D.The books story was pretty exciting, even though it's cover was not.

Answers

The correct option is C. The book's story was pretty exciting ,even though its cover was not. You have to use the form book's because we are talking about one book only, so the correct possessive form of a singular noun is created by adding an apostrophe and then letter S. So book becomes book's. Also, the pronoun that refers to the book is it, and the possessive form of it is - its. It's is a shortened version of it is, and it is not a pronoun like its is.

C. The book's story was pretty exciting, even though its cover was not.

The apostrophe rule we are looking for here is the possessive rule for the apostrophe.  Because only one book is being talked about, we’ll need the singular possessive form, which is book’s.  The rule of adding an apostrophe has, however, an exception.  For the pronoun “it,” an apostrophe “s” indicates the contraction of “it is.”  As such, to make it possessive, only an “s” is added (without an apostrophe) as in its.

Which of these lines from the epitaph directly states Mrs. Purkapile's reason for staying married? A But a promise is a promise/And marriage is marriage
B I pretended to believe it, though I knew very well/What he was doing
C And out of respect for my own character/I refused to be drawn into a divorce
D By the scheme of a husband who had merely grown tired/Of his marital vow and duty.

Answers

The epitaph of Mrs. Purkapile is part of Edgar Lee Masters' "Spoon River Anthology". It was published in 1915. This is a sequence of 245 free-verse epitaphs that are presented in the form of monologues. They are written from the point of view of deceased citizens of a small town.

The correct answer is option C: "And out of respect for my own character / I refused to be drawn into a divorce." These lines directly state the reason that Mrs. Purkapile had for staying married.
I think C is the correct answer.
