Let’s go through each question one by one. These are about
reflexive pronouns — words like *myself, yourself, himself, herself, itself, ourselves, yourselves, themselves*. They’re used when the subject and object of a sentence are the same person or thing.

Wait — this is identical to Question 3! Same sentence, same subject (“He”) → still needs
himself
