Answer: A reflexive pronoun reflects back on the subject of the sentence. But, a intensive pronoun adds emphasis or intensity to a noun.

Examples: A intensive/reflexive pronouns include myself, yourself, himself, herself, itself, ourselves, yourselves, themselves. And, used in a sentence would be..

"I was in a hurry, so I washed the car myself."

"You're going to have to drive yourself to school today."

"He wanted to impress her, so he baked a cake himself."

Answer: Here is an idea on how to write your essay. You may need to elaborate a bit more.

There was a time when Germany’s economy was at its worst. When Adolf Hitler’s Nazi Party was rising to power. Yet, Otto and Edith Frank were blessed to welcome Annelies Marie Frank to their lives on June 12, 1929 on the outskirts of Frankfurt. As a young girl, Anne is forced to go into hiding amidst much political persecution of her people in her new home country of Netherlands.

Living in the secrecy of the Annex forces upon Anne the stark reality of a critical time in a Jew´s life. Anne will eventually complete her diary with over two years of experiences of the Secret Annex.Two years that will change the bright-eyed little girl who walked into the annex for the first time into a fully-fledged woman that would never leave that place alive.

Anne's diary begins just as Anne hits adolescence. She tells us that “Writing in a diary is a really strange experience for someone like me. Not only because I've never written anything before, but also because it seems to me that later on neither I nor anyone else will be interested in the musings of a thirteen-year-old schoolgirl. Oh well, it doesn't matter. I feel like writing, and I have an even greater need to get all kinds of things off my chest.” At this stage she is just a little girl trying to relieve some of the constraints of her confinement by writing something.

Although she is living the extraordinary circumstances of hiding in an annex from German persecution, Anne faces the many normal problems of any bright-eyed thirteen year old. Anne begins to mature emotionally and physically, and recognizes her limitations to understanding adulthood when she first began writing her diary. In one entry, she shows that her younger self has deepened "I wouldn't be able to write that kind of thing anymore," she says. "My descriptions are so indelicate."

Anne matures over the course of the Diary into a deeper more realistic woman. Anne begins as an optimistic young girl who, with the passing of time, reflects on her place in the world and is quick to challenge views and argue with the other residents in the annex. As she tells us on page 142, “Sometimes I think God is trying to test me, both now and in the future. I'll have to become a good person on my own, without anyone to serve as a model or advise me, but it'll make me stronger in the end.
