Test: Pronoun- 1 - Class 6 MCQ

The phrase "Those who live in glass houses should not throw stones" is an idiom.

• Who is the correct word because it refers to people.
• Using who indicates the subject of the sentence.

The original sentence has an error.

The word "what" should be replaced with "who".

This is because "fate" is typically personified as having knowledge or awareness.

The solution explains the correct choice for replacing the underlined word:

• The sentence refers to the cost of a single project, which is a singular noun.
• Therefore, the possessive pronoun should be "its", not "their".
• Correcting the pronoun ensures the sentence reads: "The new project involves building dams across several rivers, but its cost is likely to be very high."

The word "whom" is used correctly in the sentence because it functions as the object of the clause. Here's why:

• The sentence describes a person (a poor man) who is the subject.
• The word "whom" refers to the object of the verb "knew."
• Using "whom" clarifies that the man is the one who was known by the speaker.

Thus, "whom" is the appropriate choice for completing the sentence.

The relative pronoun in the sentence is "that".

Relative pronouns are used to connect a clause or phrase to a noun or pronoun.

In this case, "that" links the clause "that have the strongest talons" to "The birds".

The correct option is B: "it also has".

Here, "it" refers to "Living in London", which is a singular subject.

The original phrase "they also have" incorrectly uses the plural pronoun "they".

Though the sentence speaks of 2 people, it concludes with only one person's actions. The word 'she' leaves unclear which of the two people is being spoken of. Therefore, 'she' needs to be replaced with 'the fair- haired lady', which makes clear exactly who came out with a bag. Hence, the correct answer is B) The fair-haired lady. 

Since the reference is to an event, which means something inanimate, hence third person singular neuter pronoun "it" should be used. Therefore the sentence requires no change. Hence, Option D is correct. The rest of the options do not adhere to this rule, hence incorrect.

The phrase "their heads" is correct because it refers to the family as a group.

Using "their" aligns with the plural nature of "family" since it includes multiple people.

Other options do not fit the context as well as "their heads".

The mere use of "these" does not include all the characteristics of the Impressionist movement and might refer to something else other than intended. Therefore, "All of these features" must be used to clarify which nouns are being substituted. Also, the features being inanimate, no personal pronoun can be used. Hence, Option B is correct. The rest of the options do not adhere to this rule; hence, they are incorrect.
