Which pronoun best completes the sentence? Study Hall At my school, we have one hour of study hall at the end of the each day. During this hour, everyone must do homework quietly. Almost all of my classmates like study hall because it gets their homework out of the way. I dislike study hall because of one person who reads aloud under his breath. He says reading aloud helps him concentrate. I think he should be allowed to skip study hall and go home early instead of bothering me.

A wise and benevolent king spent his life uniting his kingdoms under his rule. He was a kind and generous ruler who cared for his people and brought them great prosperity. When he was aging, he was afraid his three sons would not carry on his legacy. His sons were petty and thought only of themselves. One day the king called his three sons together. When they arrived, he handed each of them an arrow. “Each of you has a single arrow in your hands. Break it, if you can,” said the king. And each son easily snapped the arrow in two. Afterwards, the king handed each son a bundle of three arrows. Each was holding a bundle of three arrows at once. “Now, try and break these bundles of three, if you can,” said the king. None of his sons managed to break a single bundle. “You are a wise and good king, Father,” his sons said. “We will set aside our differences for the good of the kingdom.” And they did. The kingdom continued in great prosperity. What is the theme of this passage? -Sons should follow in their fathers footsteps. -Good rulers should be generous to their people. -Strength in numbers is difficult to overcome. -A kingdom is like an arrow, straight and true.
What is Strength in numbers is difficult to overcome.
