ZS Associates Pronoun Quiz 1

Answer - She

The sentence uses the pronoun 'He' in the beginning s we will use the same pronoun for the different gender.

Answer - their

With the use of conjunction 'and' in the sentence the number of people become two hence we use a plural pronoun which is 'THEIR'.

Answer - her
Her is a third person singular pronoun. Her is used as the object of a verb or a preposition. Her is also a possessive determiner. You use her to refer to a woman, girl.

Answer - his

When using neither...nor... we take the subjects as singular. Hence we will use a singular pronoun. In this sentence it will be HIS'.

Answer - his

Even though the sentence uses 'and', it contradicts the plural rule because both the subjects have 'each' before them. Hence, we will take both the subjects as singular because each is a singular verb.

Answer - that

We use 'that' for a sentence to refer to an object that is already known to the speaker. Here the can of wax is already there with the person hence we use 'that' instead of 'which'.

Answer - one another

Here we use one another because the sentence refers to 'we'. So use of more than one person is referred to here.

Answer - herself

when we use pronouns to refer to the same person twice in a sentence, the subject of the sentence is receiving the action of the verb, hence we use herself or himself.

Answer - these, those

Since the subjects are plural it is important to take plural pronouns. Also first we start with nearer pronouns (this, these) and later on (that or those).

Answer - yourself, them

We use yourself here to emphasize on the subject's actions. Them is used to refer to a group of people (more than one).
