Let's solve the pronoun exercise step by step. The task is to
tick the correct pronoun in each sentence.
---
1. Sara and Meena are good friends. We / They go to the same school.
-
Sara and Meena are two people (plural).
- "We" refers to the speaker and others, but here the subject is
Sara and Meena, not including the speaker.
- So, the correct pronoun is:
✔ They
> ✔️
They go to the same school.
---
2. Gopal helps everyone. He / I is a helpful boy.
- The sentence talks about
Gopal, a male person.
- "He" refers to Gopal correctly.
- "I" would mean the speaker, which doesn't make sense here.
> ✔️
He is a helpful boy.
---
3. Rahul is a naughty boy. He / He does not listen to anyone.
- Both options are "He", but this seems like a typo or formatting issue.
- Since Rahul is a male, the pronoun should be
He.
- It says "He / He" — probably meant to be "He / She" or another option, but both are "He".
- So,
He is correct.
> ✔️
He does not listen to anyone.
---
4. My name is Geeta. I / She study in class I.
- The speaker says "My name is Geeta", so it's
first person.
- Therefore, use
I.
- "She" would be third person, which is incorrect here.
> ✔️
I study in class I.
---
5. Mohan and Sunil say, 'We / They are going to the market'.
- Mohan and Sunil are speaking about themselves.
- They are using
'We' to refer to themselves.
- "They" would be used if someone else was talking about them.
> ✔️
We are going to the market.
---
6. The teacher says to Seema, 'They / You are a good girl!'
- The teacher is directly addressing
Seema.
- So, the correct pronoun is
You.
- "They" would refer to multiple people, not one person being addressed.
> ✔️
You are a good girl!
---
7. Sonal likes to eat fruits. We / She likes apples the most.
- The subject is
Sonal, a female.
- So, the pronoun must be
She.
- "We" would include the speaker, which isn't correct here.
> ✔️
She likes apples the most.
---
8. This is an elephant. She / It lives in the forest.
- Elephants are animals, and we don’t assign gender unless specified.
- For animals, especially when gender is unknown, we use
It.
- "She" is used only for female animals, but here no gender is mentioned.
> ✔️
It lives in the forest.
