Test: Pronoun And Its Kinds- 2 - Class 5 MCQ

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.

An antecedent is a word for which a pronoun stands (ante = "before"). The pronoun must agree with its antecedent in number. Rule: A singular pronoun must replace a singular noun; a plural pronoun must replace a plural noun. The antecedent here is 'brothers' which is plural. So, we need a plural pronoun. Hence, the correct answer is C) They.

In this sentence, we are speaking about the 'family' which is a collective noun. Collective nouns may take singular or plural pronouns, based on whether they refer to the group as a single unit or to each member of the group individually. Here, we are referring to every member of the family working hard. So, we need to use a singular pronoun. Hence, the correct answer is B) Their heads.

A noun or pronoun is said to be in the subjective/nominative when it is used as the subject of the sentence. Here, the noun 'Jacob' and the pronoun is in the subjective case as it is the subject of the verb 'walked'. Hence, we need to use the pronoun 'I' instead of 'me' because 'I' is a subjective case pronoun whereas 'me' is an objective case pronoun, which has been incorrectly used.

The pronoun is used in place of a noun. Here, the noun is 'the car', so the pronoun that can replace it is B) it. ('They' is incorrect because 'they' refers to living things and plural nouns. 'Its' is also wrong because 'its' refers to the possessive case.)

'She' needs to be replaced with a noun to clarify who it is referring to. Hence, the correct option is B) Jenny. 

A possessive pronoun is required to indicate that the wheel is the possession of the cycle. Since it is an inanimate object, possessive form of it should be used without apostrophe, that is, "its". "It's" is the shortened form of "it is". Hence, Option A is correct. The rest of the options do not adhere to this rule, hence incorrect. 

'She' needs to be replaced with a noun in order to indicate who is sleeping. Hence, the correct option is B) The little girl.

Of the given options, A) Nutritionists say is the right choice as it clearly conveys who has made the statement.

The pronoun is used in place of a noun. Here, the nouns are 'Helen' and 'Helen's mother' and the suitable pronoun for both the nouns is  'she'. However, the use of the pronoun 'she' would be ambiguous. Therefore, to avoid such ambiguity, the correct option here is: B) Helen.
