Pronouns Exercise Answers
Exercise 1
Over spring break, I visited my older cousin, Diana, and she took me to a butterfly exhibit at a museum. Diana and I have been close ever since we were young. Our mothers are twin sisters, and we are inseparable! Diana knows how much I love butterflies, so it was her special present to me. I have a soft spot for caterpillars too. I love them because something about the way they transform is so interesting to me. One summer, my grandmother gave me a butterfly growing kit, and I got to see the entire life cycle of five Painted Lady butterflies. I even got to set them free. So when my cousin said she wanted to take me to the butterfly exhibit, I was really excited!
