@RedStealth29 @airjordan200 @Anaise

OpenStudy (redstealth29):

It's B im pretty sure.

OpenStudy (anaise):

Explain why, it is ship because it is nor a pronoun, or it doesn't have a specific name.

OpenStudy (anaise):

Although, I don't think it is B

OpenStudy (airjordan200):

the simple subject is the main word that describes it all

OpenStudy (airjordan200):

me niether

OpenStudy (anaise):

As reviewing the sentence, it is B. I was talking to @RedStealth29

OpenStudy (anaise):

Because it is Lord Nelson's ship, and it mentions its name, and the ship is sailing south. Also, the ship is the one meeting the fleet.

OpenStudy (anaise):

But you just said you didn't think it was B. Also, from the narrator's perspective, you could tell :-)

OpenStudy (redstealth29):

That's where my evidence came from, the narrator. I just forgot to add resasoning because i was rushing to do something for my parents :P

OpenStudy (anaise):

Understood, I gave you a medal.

OpenStudy (danysanchy97):
