As _____ cuts it as well as he does, I always have my hair cut at Johnson's.
  • a)
    anyone
  • b)
    someone else's
  • c)
    no one else
  • d)
    everyone
  • e)
    nobody's
Correct answer is option 'C'. Can you explain this answer?

Edgy Education answered

To solve this question, we need to find the correct option that completes the sentence appropriately. Let's analyze each option:
A:
anyone

This option doesn't fit the context of the sentence. The sentence is expressing a preference for Johnson's, so using "anyone" doesn't make sense.
B:
someone else's

This option also doesn't fit the context. The sentence is referring to the person who cuts the hair, not someone else's hair.
C:
no one else

This option is appropriate because it emphasizes that the person cutting the hair is the best, and there is no one else who can do it as well.
D:
everyone

This option doesn't make sense in the context of the sentence. The sentence is referring to a specific person who cuts the hair, not everyone in general.
E:
nobody's

This option doesn't fit the context. The sentence is referring to the person who cuts the hair, not nobody's hair.
Therefore, the correct option is C:
no one else
.

  • c)

  • d)
    mine / our
  • e)

Correct answer is option 'B'. Can you explain this answer?

Arti nair answered
Understanding the Correct Answer
In the given sentence, the correct choice is "me / us," which corresponds to option 'B'. Let's break down why this is the case.
Pronoun Usage
- Subject vs. Object:
- "I" and "we" are subject pronouns, used when the pronoun is the subject of the verb.
- "Me" and "us" are object pronouns, used when the pronoun is the object of the verb or preposition.
- Analyzing the Sentence:
- The sentence reads: "The solicitor wrote a letter to Ann and ______ in which he asked us if we could settle the matter between _____."
- The missing pronoun after "to Ann and" must refer to the object of the preposition "to," indicating the letter is addressed to both Ann and the speaker.
Correct Usage of 'Me' and 'Us'
- Choosing "Me":
- The phrase should read: "to Ann and me," as "me" is the correct object pronoun in this context.
- Choosing "Us":
- The second blank should read "us" since it serves as the object of the verb "asked." The solicitor is asking both the speaker and others if they can settle the matter.
Conclusion
Thus, the sentence correctly structured with option 'B' reads: "The solicitor wrote a letter to Ann and me in which he asked us if we could settle the matter between us."
This highlights the proper use of object pronouns in formal communication.

The old woman lived alone, with _____ to look after _____.
  • a)
    someone / her
  • b)
    anyone / herself
  • c)
    everyone / she
  • d)
    no one / her
  • e)
    anyone / she's
Correct answer is option 'D'. Can you explain this answer?

Nitin naidu answered
The old woman lived alone with "no one" to look after "her". The preposition "with" is used to indicate the person who is responsible for looking after the old woman. The pronoun "her" refers to the old woman herself. So the sentence means that there was no one to take care of the old woman and she was taking care of herself.

As for _____, I prefer to let people make up _____ minds.
  • a)
    myself / each other's
  • b)
    I / his own
  • c)
    mine / one another's
  • d)
    me / their own
  • e)
    my / theirs
Correct answer is option 'D'. Can you explain this answer?

Yashina Kapoor answered

The correct answer is D:
me / their own

Explanation:
- The sentence structure indicates that the speaker is expressing their preference for how others make up their minds.
- The first blank should be filled with a pronoun that refers to the speaker, indicating that the speaker is the one who prefers to let people make up their own minds.
- The second blank should be filled with a possessive pronoun that refers to the minds of the people mentioned earlier in the sentence.
- Option D,
me / their own
, is the correct choice as it correctly fills both blanks with the appropriate pronouns.
- Option A,
myself / each other's
, is incorrect as it does not accurately reflect the structure of the sentence.
- Option B,
I / his own
, is incorrect as it uses the wrong pronoun in the second blank.
- Option C,
mine / one another's
, is incorrect as it uses the wrong pronoun in the second blank.
- Option E,
my / theirs
, is incorrect as it uses the wrong pronoun in the second blank.

Sarika dubey answered
Understanding the Answer:
Baby learns the meaning of words as they are spoken by others and later uses them in sentences. Let's break down the explanation:

As they are spoken by others:
- Babies learn language by listening to the words spoken by others around them, such as parents, siblings, and caregivers.
- They start associating the sounds with objects, actions, and concepts in their environment.

Uses them in sentences:
- As babies continue to develop their language skills, they begin to mimic the words they have heard.
- They gradually learn to put words together to form simple sentences to communicate their needs and thoughts.

Why option B is correct:
- In the given sentence, "they" refers to the baby learning words from others, and "them" refers to the words that the baby later uses in sentences.
- Therefore, the correct choice is "they / them" in option B.
By understanding how babies acquire language through listening and imitation, we can see why the answer is option B.

Correct answer is option 'E'. Can you explain this answer?

Ajay rane answered
Explanation:

The given sentence talks about a dog and its breed. The sentence requires a pronoun to refer to the dog and its features. The correct answer is option 'E', "it / their".

- The pronoun 'it' refers to the dog as it is a non-living thing.
- The possessive pronoun 'their' is used to refer to the features of the dog, which is plural.

Therefore, the sentence can be rewritten as "Our dog is of a very good breed as it is the offspring of two very champion dogs and inherited their features."

In summary, the correct answer is option 'E', "it / their".

They decided to buy the house because _____ location would allow _____ to get to work very easily.
  • a)
    theirs / them
  • b)
    it / themselves
  • c)
    its / them
  • d)
    they / us
  • e)
    its / their
Correct answer is option 'C'. Can you explain this answer?

Muskaan reddy answered
Explanation:

The sentence is talking about a group of people who are buying a house, and the reason for their decision is that the location of the house will make it easy for them to get to work. The correct answer is option C, "its / them."

- Possessive Pronouns: "theirs" and "their" are possessive pronouns, which are used to show ownership. However, in this sentence, we need a pronoun that refers to the house itself, not to the people who are buying it. Therefore, options A and E are incorrect.
- Object Pronouns: "it" is an object pronoun that refers to the house, but "themselves" is a reflexive pronoun that refers back to the people who are buying the house. Therefore, option B is incorrect.
- Subject Pronouns: "they" is a subject pronoun that refers to the people who are buying the house, but "us" is a pronoun that includes the speaker in the group. Since we don't know if the speaker is part of the group buying the house, option D is incorrect.

Therefore, the correct answer is "its / them." The possessive pronoun "its" refers to the location of the house, and the object pronoun "them" refers to the people who are buying the house.

    my / them
  • c)
    hers / their
  • d)
    me / they
  • e)
    mine / them
Correct answer is option 'E'. Can you explain this answer?

Nitin naidu answered
Answer:

Explanation:

The sentence given is in the form of a statement. It means that some of the clothes belong to someone and the rest of the clothes belong to Zack. The correct answer is option 'E'.

- Option 'A', "yours/it" - This option is incorrect because 'yours' refers to the second-person possessive pronoun, which means the clothes belong to the person being addressed. However, there is no indication in the sentence that the clothes belong to the person being addressed. Also, 'it' is a singular pronoun, which cannot be used for referring to clothes in plural.
- Option 'B', "my/them" - This option is incorrect because 'my' refers to the first-person possessive pronoun, which means the clothes belong to the speaker. However, there is no indication in the sentence that the clothes belong to the speaker. Also, 'them' is a plural pronoun, which cannot be used with 'my'.
- Option 'C', "hers/their" - This option is incorrect because 'hers' refers to the third-person singular feminine possessive pronoun, which means the clothes belong to a female being referred to. However, there is no indication in the sentence that the clothes belong to a female being referred to. Also, 'their' is a plural pronoun, which cannot be used with 'hers'.
- Option 'D', "me/they" - This option is incorrect because 'me' is the first-person singular pronoun, which cannot be used as a possessive pronoun. Also, 'they' is a plural pronoun, which cannot be used with 'me'.
- Option 'E', "mine/them" - This option is correct because 'mine' is the first-person singular possessive pronoun, which means the clothes belong to the speaker. Also, 'them' is a plural pronoun, which can be used with 'mine' to refer to the rest of the clothes that belong to Zack.

    The / myself
  • e)
    This / my
Correct answer is option 'A'. Can you explain this answer?

Freak Artworks answered

The correct answer is A: These / my.
Explanation:
To determine the correct answer, we need to understand the usage of demonstrative pronouns and possessive pronouns in the given sentence.
1. Demonstrative pronouns: These, That, Those, This
- Demonstrative pronouns are used to point to specific people, things, or places.
- "These" is used to refer to things that are close to the speaker.
- "That" is used to refer to things that are farther from the speaker.
- "Those" is used to refer to things that are far away from both the speaker and the listener.
- "This" is used to refer to a single thing that is close to the speaker.
2. Possessive pronouns: My, Mine, Me, Myself
- Possessive pronouns are used to show ownership or possession.
- "My" is used to show ownership by the speaker.
- "Mine" is used to replace a noun and show possession.
- "Me" is a personal pronoun used as the object of a verb or preposition.
- "Myself" is a reflexive pronoun used for emphasis or to refer back to the subject.
In the given sentence, we need to fill in the blanks with the appropriate demonstrative pronoun and possessive pronoun.
- "_____ two rings here on my little finger belonged to ____ grandmother."
- The first blank refers to the rings, which are close to the speaker. Therefore, we need to use the demonstrative pronoun for things close to the speaker. The correct choice is "These".
- The second blank refers to the speaker's grandmother. Since the speaker is indicating possession, we need to use the possessive pronoun for ownership by the speaker. The correct choice is "my".
Hence, the correct answer is A: These / my.
