The sentence in question is:
“From 1858 to around 1864, for example, she copied more than 800 of ____ into forty homemade booklets (known as fascicles).”
To determine the correct pronoun to fill in the blank, let’s analyze the context:
  1. Reference Point: The previous sentence mentions “these works,” which refers to Emily Dickinson’s poems.
  2. Number Agreement: “800” implies a large number of individual items (poems), which is plural.
  3. Pronoun Choice:
    • (A) them: Plural pronoun, correctly referring back to multiple poems.
    • (B) it: Singular pronoun, incorrect for multiple poems.
    • © that: Singular demonstrative pronoun, not suitable here.
    • (D) this: Singular demonstrative pronoun, also not suitable.
Given that “800” refers to many poems, the plural pronoun “them” is the correct choice.
Answer:
A) them

Emily Dickinson’s meticulous process of creating her fascicles showcases her dedication to her craft. These booklets were not just random collections; they were carefully arranged and bound by Dickinson herself, reflecting her desire for permanence in a world that often overlooked her genius.
If you’re ever sorting your thoughts or creative ideas, consider making your own version of a fascicle! Using small notebooks or even digital folders can help you keep your work organized and ready for future inspiration, just as Dickinson did.

Choose the sentence in this excerpt that best summarizes the purpose of the U.S. Treasury. The Treasury prints the paper money we use every day through its child agency, the Bureau of Engraving and Printing. It mints the coins jangling in our pockets through another child agency, the United States Mint. The Treasury collects all duties and taxes, and enforces tax policy through the Internal Revenue Service, as well as managing government bonds and other debt instruments. In short, the Treasury's charter is to collect the government's money, pay the government's bills, and balance the nation's checkbook.

The noble diet was almost limitless: fancy fruits, deer, duck, cheese, butter, and honey. Nobles, however, might for religious reasons avoid eating pork and fish. The priests, who offered up banquets of rich food and drink to the gods three times a day, ate the unconsumed food and ended up with blocked arteries, high blood pressure, and premature heart attacks.
