1. Write a, an or –.

This section tests your understanding of when to use the articles "a" and "an", or no article (–).

* Rule: Use "a" before words that start with a consonant *sound*. Use "an" before words that start with a vowel *sound* (a, e, i, o, u). Use "–" (no article) for plural nouns or uncountable nouns in general contexts.
* 0. _an_ ice-cream: "Ice-cream" starts with a vowel sound (/aɪ/), so we use "an".
* 1. _a_ green apple: "Green" starts with a consonant sound (/g/), so we use "a". (Note: We are describing "apple", but the article agrees with the first word of the phrase, which is "green").
* 2. _–_ keys: "Keys" is plural, so no article is needed.
* 3. _an_ earring: "Earring" starts with a vowel sound (/ɪ/), so we use "an".
* 4. _–_ apples: "Apples" is plural, so no article is needed.
* 5. _an_ MP3 player: "MP3" is pronounced "em-pee-three". It starts with the vowel sound /e/, so we use "an".
* 6. _a_ laptop: "Laptop" starts with a consonant sound (/l/), so we use "a".

Answers:
1. a
2. –
3. an
4. –
5. an
6. a

2. Choose the correct options.

This section tests subject-verb agreement with demonstrative pronouns ("this", "that", "these", "those").

* Rule: "This" and "that" are singular. "These" and "those" are plural. The verb must agree with the subject.
* 0. _These_ are my shoes.: "Shoes" is plural, so we need the plural pronoun "These".
* 1. What are _these_?: The verb "are" is plural, so the subject must be plural. "These" is correct.
* 2. Is _that_ your bag?: "Bag" is singular, so we need the singular pronoun "that".
* 3. _These_ are my photos.: "Photos" is plural, so we need the plural pronoun "These".
* 4. _This_ is the new teacher.: "Teacher" is singular, so we need the singular pronoun "This".
* 5. Are _these_ sandwiches?: The verb "Are" is plural, so the subject must be plural. "These" is correct.

Answers:
1. These
2. these
3. that
4. These
5. This
6. these

3. Complete the sentences with the correct possessive pronoun.

This section tests your knowledge of possessive pronouns (mine, yours, his, hers, its, ours, theirs).

* Rule: Possessive pronouns stand alone and replace a noun + possessive adjective (e.g., "my book" becomes "mine"). They show ownership without needing a noun after them.
* 0. ‘Are these my sandwiches?’ ‘Yes, they’re _yours_.’: The answer confirms ownership belongs to "you". "Yours" = "your sandwiches".
* 1. ‘Are these Sue’s trainers?’ ‘Yes, they’re _hers_.’: The answer confirms ownership belongs to "Sue" (a female). "Hers" = "Sue's trainers".
* 2. ‘Is this your computer?’ ‘No. My parents use it. It’s _theirs_.’: The answer confirms ownership belongs to "my parents". "Theirs" = "my parents' computer".
* 3. ‘Whose biscuits are these?’ ‘Marie and I made them. They’re _ours_.’: The answer confirms ownership belongs to "Marie and I". "Ours" = "Marie and my biscuits".
* 4. ‘Is this my orange juice?’ ‘Yes, it’s _yours_.’: The answer confirms ownership belongs to "you". "Yours" = "your orange juice".

Answers:
1. hers
2. theirs
3. ours
4. yours

4. Put the apostrophe in the correct place.

This section tests the use of the possessive 's.

* Rule: To show possession for a singular noun, add 's. For a plural noun ending in 's', just add an apostrophe (').
* 0. Mrs Taylor’s class...: Singular noun (Mrs Taylor), so add 's. (Given as correct).
* 1. Jenny’s favourite band...: Singular noun (Jenny), so add 's.
* 2. My parents’ car...: Plural noun (parents), so add only the apostrophe (').
* 3. Henry’s guitar...: Singular noun (Henry), so add 's.
* 4. My friends’ names...: Plural noun (friends), so add only the apostrophe (').
* 5. This is my dog’s bed.: Singular noun (dog), so add 's.

Answers:
1. Jenny’s
2. parents’
3. Henry’s
4. friends’
