Weekly Quiz Competition
  • Question 1
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate pronoun:
    Do ___ need any help?
    Solution
    Personal pronouns are pronouns that are associated primarily with a particular grammatical person – first person, second person, or third person. In this sentence also, a reference to a particular person has been made. The sentence is in the second person. 
    "You" is in the second person
    "Me" is in the first person
    "Your" is a possessive pronoun
    "him" is in the third person
    Option A is the correct answer. 
  • Question 2
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate pronoun:
    They played among ______.
    Solution
    In language, a reflexive pronoun, sometimes simply called a reflexive, is a pronoun that is preceded or followed by the noun, adjective, adverb or pronoun to which it refers within the same clause. This is a sentence where we require a reflexive pronoun. Now, a group is present which is understandable from the first word of the sentence. The answer is "them selves"
    Option B is correct. 
  • Question 3
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
    I can see Amanda. ________ is waiting for the New York plane. 
    Solution
    A  word that can function as a noun phrase used by itself and that refers either to the participants in the discourse or to someone or something mentioned elsewhere in the discourse. In the first half of the sentence a name has been mentioned who has been mentioned again in the second sentence with the help of a pronoun. The pronoun is what we need to use to fill the blank. Now, the pronoun needs to be in third person and female form as "Amanda" is the name of a woman. "I" is in the first person. "He" is in the third person but is in male gender. "His" is the possessive form of "He". "She" is in third person and female gender. This is the correct answer.
    Option B is correct. 
  • Question 4
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
    Seda and I washed _______ hands.
    Solution
    A word that can function as a noun phrase used by itself and that refers either to the participants in the discourse or to someone or something mentioned elsewhere in the discourse. In this sentence, we require a determiner which can be used to mention the washed hands. 
    "Us" is a pronoun which is used as an object when the sentence is in the first person and in a group. 
    "Our" is a determiner
    "Ours" is the possessive form of "our"
    "We" is a pronoun similar to "us" but used as a subject
    Option B is correct.
  • Question 5
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
    My brother and I are hungry. _____ are thirsty too.
    Solution
    A word that can function as a noun phrase used by itself and that refers either to the participants in the discourse or to someone or something mentioned elsewhere in the discourse is a pronoun. This particular sentence, is in the first person so the blank would contain a pronoun in the first person and in group. 
    "They" is used while referring to a group in third person
    "He" is used while referring to a particular person in third person
    "We" is used while referring to a group in the first person
    "Us" is also a pronoun used in the first person when in group, but it's not a subject pronoun. Us in an object pronoun that can be used as the object of a preposition or the object of a verb. This sentence requires a subject pronoun. It is the wrong option
    Option C is correct. 
  • Question 6
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
    I haven't got the keys. Father has got _________.
    Solution
    A word that can function as a noun phrase used by itself and that refers either to the participants in the discourse or to someone or something mentioned elsewhere in the discourse. In this sentence, the pronoun we would be using is to address the keys. Now, "keys" is neutral and in plural form so the pronoun used would be "them". "It" is also used in case of neutral nouns but when it is singular in nature. 
    Option D is correct. 
  • Question 7
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
    There is some milk. I'd like to drink _____.
    Solution
    A word that can function as a noun phrase used by itself and that refers either to the participants in the discourse or to someone or something mentioned elsewhere in the discourse is a pronoun. In this particular case, the noun that has been pointed to in the second sentence is milk. Milk is a neutral noun thus, we would indicate milk with "it". 
    They is used when there are a group of nouns that needs to be indicated
    it is used for neutral nouns
    them is a possessive pronoun used for a group 
    its is again a possessive pronoun of "it"
    Option B is correct. 
  • Question 8
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
    _________ student are looking for their ball.
    Solution
    A word that can function as a noun phrase used by itself and that refers either to the participants in the discourse or to someone or something mentioned elsewhere in the discourse is a pronoun. 
    That is used while referring to one particular noun and they act as a determiner. As a determiner that refers to the more distant of two things near to the speaker, or to a specific thing previously mentioned. In this case, a group is present, it is the wrong option. 
    Those is the plural forms of that, and behave in the same way. As a determiner, this is used to identify a specific person or thing close at hand or being experienced. It is the right option. 
    This has the same explanation as that of "that". It is the wrong option.
    They is used to refer to the subject of a clause. In other words, it usually represents the ‘doers’ of the action described by the verb, and usually refers back to two or more people or things that were mentioned earlier. It is the wrong option
    Option B is correct
  • Question 9
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
    Father is calling Ali and me. He wants ____ .
    Solution
    A word that can function as a noun phrase used by itself and that refers either to the participants in the discourse or to someone or something mentioned elsewhere in the discourse is a pronoun. This particular sentence, is in the first person so the blank would contain a pronoun in the first person and in group. 
    "We" is used while referring to a group in the first person. But it is a subject pronoun. In this sentence we require an object pronoun. This is the wrong option. 
    "Us" is also a pronoun used in the first person when in group, but it's not a subject pronoun. Us in an object pronoun that can be used as the object of a preposition or the object of a verb. It is the correct option 
    "Them" is a possessive pronoun used while referring to a group in third person
    "Him" is used while referring to a particular person in third person
    Option B is correct.

    The girls can go home. They have finished ________ work.
    Solution
    A word that can function as a noun phrase used by itself and that refers either to the participants in the discourse or to someone or something mentioned elsewhere in the discourse. In the first half of the sentence, the noun is the group of girls and thus in the second sentence to refer to this noun a pronoun needs to be used.
    "its" is used for neutral nouns when present singly
    "ours" is used when a group is present
    "hers" is a possessive form 
    "their" is in third person and is used in groups
