Question

Now read this extract from a story and draw arrows (as in the example above) to show how the personal pronouns refer to the different people and things.

Leena was on her annual visit to her uncle’s house. She always enjoyed it because she was allowed to spend most of the day down at the mango grove. Leena’s uncle was a friend of the man who owned the grove and he always gave a special rate. This year Leena’s aunt too, joined her, and together they set off across the fields to the grove. The branches of the trees were covered with ripe and juicy mango fruits, and the trees were so bowed down with the weight that they almost touched the ground. They spent hours picking fruit, eating most of it and sleeping in the shade of the mango trees.
