It looks like you've uploaded an image containing a worksheet titled
"Pronoun Agreement – Exercise 3". The task involves identifying and correcting pronoun agreement errors in sentences. Since I can't view images directly, I’ll need you to provide the text of the exercise or describe the content so I can help solve it.
However, based on the visible portion of your message, here's what I can infer:
Objective:
The goal is to
correct pronoun agreement errors in each sentence. This means ensuring that pronouns (like *he*, *she*, *they*, *it*, *them*, etc.) agree in
number (singular vs. plural) and
gender (if applicable) with their antecedents (the nouns they refer to).

Common Pronoun Agreement Errors Include:
1.
Subject-verb disagreement: e.g., "Each of the students
have a book." → Should be "
has".
2.
Pronoun-antecedent mismatch: e.g., "Everyone should bring
their book." → "Everyone" is singular; better: "
his or her" or rephrase.
3.
Use of plural pronouns with singular antecedents: e.g., "The student lost
their backpack." → Use "
his or her" or make it plural ("Students...").
4.
Ambiguous antecedents: e.g., "When a teacher asks a question,
they must answer." → "A teacher" is singular; use "
he or she" or rephrase.

Example Problem & Solution:
Let’s assume one of the sentences is:
> "My sister and brother are going to the movies, and
they want to see the new superhero film."
✔ Correct — "My sister and brother" is a compound subject (plural), so "they" agrees.
But if it were:
> "My sister and brother are going to the movies, and
he wants to see the new superhero film."
✘ Incorrect — "He" doesn't agree with the plural subject.
✔ Correction: "My sister and brother are going to the movies, and
they want..."

Please provide the actual sentences from the worksheet (either by typing them or describing them), and I’ll walk you through each one, explaining the error and how to fix it.
