解释:"its" is a possessive pronoun, so it can have either apossessive or a non-possessive noun as its antecedent. If you have a possessiveNOUN, then the limit applies. For example, in "the cat'sfur," the word "cat's" is a possessive noun. If I wanted to usea pronoun to refer to the possessive noun "cat's," I could only use apossessive pronoun. The cat's fur makes her taillook bigger than it really is. In this sentence the pronoun "her" isa possessive pronoun and it is referring to a possessive noun. That IS okay. The cat's fur makes her seemreally fluffy. In this sentence, the pronoun "her" is an objectpronoun and it is referring to a possessive noun. That's NOT okay. The cat is so fluffy that hertail looks bigger than it really is. In this sentence, the pronoun"her" is a possessive pronoun and it is referring to a regular noun.That IS okay. So, a possessive pronoun can refer to both a regular noun and apossessive noun. BUT if you have a possessiveNOUN, you can only use a possessive pronoun to refer to it - you can't use anobject or subject pronoun to refer to a possessive NOUN.
