This was very helpful, however, one thing I am consistently struggling with is reading the passages faster while still taking in all the necessary information. Does anyone have tips on what's helped them do this?
The first question in this one is the same as the last one. However in the first one "It" is a referential to "keeping deep wounds free of bacteria." Why is it not the case in the first question on this skill builder as well now?
For Q3 what would be the subject and predicate. I am trying to get in the habit of doing it for every question I see but I'm stumped here can anyone help me?
I just want to add onto the top comment and say that this would be massively helpful. Especially if you labeled what each highlighter color stood for, and then we could add it in ourselves
In these skill builders I think it'd be super helpful to be able to highlight the questions directly or change the font color to determine things such as the referentials, subject, etc. unless this is already a feature and I'm missing something!
So annoying, bombed all of them. How crucial is this skill? I'm a native english speaker, and feel like this is just background knowledge, but get stumped when explicity asked what it is specifically related to.... even though I get the gyst of the argument.
For Question 3: Should we consider "those that" as separate referential terms? "Those" refers to economics, while "that" refers to the entire clause.
Does "that" serve as a modifier? If so, I find it challenging to differentiate between referencing and modifiers in terms like "that," "those," and "these."
Also, is it safe to say that anytime the phrase "this or that,...." starts a sentence is a reference to the entire clause unless it is very specific?
In question 4, why wouldn’t the “in that” be considered as a referential to the later part of the sentence “ the lender sets the terms of its dealings with the borrower. “
Does it only qualify as a referential if the words are spaced out by a certain amount?
for the first sentence, wouldn't the word "it" also be a forward pointing referential because "it" is referring to the act of keeping wounds free of bacteria?
In question 4, why would the word "its" in "its dealings" not be another referential? Whose dealings? The lenders. The word "its" is referring back to the person whose dealings are being discussed, no?
In this section, I did struggle with identifying the referential phrases in the first and second phrases. Thankfully the video provided a thorough explanation of the answer.

For question 2 I also noted "the colouring" as a referential to lemon soda. Can this also be counted as a referential?
Why did i bomb this??????????? I'm overthinking this way to much
I got all of them right except I forgot that "it" and "its" are referentials
I struggled with these the most.
“ These” referent is referentials LOL Enough but seriously I need more practice with these.
alright I have hit a wall. this is probably the hardest part this whole grammar thing for me to understand.

These hurt my brain!!! Can anyone else relate?

q4 - wouldn't the "that" in "in that" refer to dealings?
Does anyone have tips for understanding this? I've been picking up on a lot of the topics well but my brain can't fully comprehend this one.
For Q3 what would be the subject and predicate. I am trying to get in the habit of doing it for every question I see but I'm stumped here can anyone help me?
5/5!!!

Additional referential: Question 1
referent: bacteria
Referential: that
#feedback I feel like if the explanations are done with a pen feature, we should also have the ability to mark up in that way.
For Question 3: Should we consider "those that" as separate referential terms? "Those" refers to economics, while "that" refers to the entire clause.

Does it only qualify as a referential if the words are spaced out by a certain amount?
Where is everyone finding these extra questions? Are there more than 5 for this skill builder ? Where should I be looking to see 1.2, 3.3 etc?
for the first sentence, wouldn't the word "it" also be a forward pointing referential because "it" is referring to the act of keeping wounds free of bacteria?
My brain started to turn off after question 3
In question 4, why would the word "its" in "its dealings" not be another referential? Whose dealings? The lenders. The word "its" is referring back to the person whose dealings are being discussed, no?

In the last question, is "one" a referential?
