Read the sentences. I always spill on myself when cooking dinner. However, professional chefs themselves tend to maintain clean aprons and work areas when they cook.

Which choice correctly identifies two pronouns from the sentences?

I (reflexive), they (intensive)

I (intensive), they (reflexive)

myself (reflexive), themselves (intensive)

myself (intensive), themselves (reflexive)

myself (reflexive), themselves (intensive)

Explanation:

"Reflexive Pronouns" refer to pronouns that are used when the subject and the object in the sentence are the same. The reflexive pronoun above is "myself." This pronoun functions as an object, but also refers to the subject "I."

"Intensive Pronouns" refer to pronouns that emphasize the noun that was already mentioned. In the example above, the intensive pronoun is "themselves" because it emphasizes the "professional chefs," which was mentioned beforehand.

It is easy to spot the reflexive and intensive pronouns because they end in "self" or "selves."

Examples: myself, yourself, himself, herself, itself, ourselves, yourselves, themselves.

the heart, blood, and blood vessels.
