Let’s go step by step to fill in each blank with the correct personal pronoun.
We are given this list of pronouns to choose from:
I, You, He, She, It, We, They
Remember:
-
I → for yourself (singular)
-
You → for one or more people you’re talking to
-
He → for a boy/man
-
She → for a girl/woman
-
It → for things or animals (unless we know their gender and want to be specific)
-
We → for “me + others” (including the speaker)
-
They → for two or more people/things (not including the speaker)
Now let’s solve each sentence:
1.
My mother and I are strong. ______ are strong.

We
✔ We
