The correct answer is the following: option b. The use of heroic couplet is a characteristic of neoclassical poetry that is displayed in the excerpt of the poem "Goliath of Gath" written by Phillis Wheatley.  An heroic couplet is a traditional form of English commonly used in narrative and epic poetry, it consists of a pair of rhyming iambic pentameters. The author uses the heroic couplets in her longest poem, where she retells the showdown between David and Goliath

the pronoun reference replaces a noun, but you have to make sure there's no room for confusion.

in the first sentence "her" could be referring to shely or to the sister. the answer there is "shelly called her sister and told her about the new baby."

in the second sentence "it" could be referring to the roof or the floor. the answer there is "since the roof leaks on the family room floor, we need to repair the roof."
