Step-by-step solution for: Grade 6: Kinds of Pronouns worksheet
Let's solve the worksheet step by step. The task is to fill in the blanks with appropriate personal pronouns.
---
We need to use personal pronouns like:
- I, you, he, she, it, we, they, me, him, her, us, them
depending on the subject or object of the sentence and grammatical context.
---
#### 1. Meena is taller than _________.
- We are comparing Meena to someone else.
- Since "Meena" is a female name, and the blank is after "than", it should be the object form of the pronoun.
- Likely referring to the speaker (you) or another person.
- Answer: *me*
✔ Meena is taller than me.
> 🔍 Why? "Than" is a preposition here, so we use the object pronoun "me".
---
#### 2. I have three neighbours _________ all are best friends.
- This is a sentence with two clauses.
- First clause: "I have three neighbours"
- Second clause: "all are best friends" — but "all" refers to the neighbours.
- We need a relative pronoun or a personal pronoun to refer to the neighbours.
- But the blank is right after "neighbours", so it likely connects the two clauses.
- Correct structure: “I have three neighbours, who all are best friends.”
But the instruction says personal pronouns, not relative pronouns.
Wait — let’s check if this can be fixed with a personal pronoun.
Actually, “they” could work:
- “I have three neighbours. They all are best friends.”
But since it's one sentence, we can write:
- “I have three neighbours, and they all are best friends.”
But the blank is just one word. So perhaps the intended answer is they.
✔ Answer: *they*
➡️ "I have three neighbours. They all are best friends."
> Note: Grammatically, it’s better as two sentences or using “who”, but since it asks for a personal pronoun, they is correct.
---
#### 3. Don’t you remember _________? _________ am your childhood friend.
- First blank: "Don't you remember ________?" → this is about someone the speaker knows.
- Second blank: "_________ am your childhood friend." → subject of the sentence.
- The second blank has "am" → must be I.
- So first blank: "Don’t you remember me?" because “remember” takes an object.
✔ Answers:
- First blank: *me*
- Second blank: *I*
➡️ "Don’t you remember me? I am your childhood friend."
---
#### 4. Is that _________ hiding behind that couch? _________ come out right now.
- First blank: "Is that _________?" → probably asking about a person.
- "That" refers to someone — likely "you" or "he/she".
- Then: "_________ come out..." → command, so imperative mood.
- If it's "you", then "Come out!" is correct.
- So both blanks likely refer to you.
✔ Answers:
- First blank: *you*
- Second blank: *You*
➡️ "Is that you hiding behind that couch? You come out right now."
---
#### 5. Chawla and Deepu get good marks. This is because _________ work hard.
- "Chawla and Deepu" = two people → plural.
- "This is because _________ work hard."
- Subject of the clause: needs plural pronoun.
- Refers to Chawla and Deepu → they
✔ Answer: *they*
➡️ "This is because they work hard."
---
#### 6. An idle mind is a devil’s workshop. Why don’t _________ cultivate a hobby?
- "Why don’t _________?" → this is a question suggesting the listener should do something.
- The implied subject is you.
✔ Answer: *you*
➡️ "Why don’t you cultivate a hobby?"
---
#### 7. My teacher is Mr Verma. _________ teaches us Science.
- "Mr Verma" is male → so pronoun should be he.
- "_________ teaches us Science" → subject of the sentence → he
✔ Answer: *He*
➡️ "He teaches us Science."
---
#### 8. _________ love ripe and juicy mangoes. _________ are the best food on a hot day.
- First blank: subject — who loves mangoes?
- Could be we or they or you.
- But second blank: "_________ are" → plural verb → subject must be plural.
- Also, "are the best food" → refers back to mangoes.
- So second blank: They (referring to mangoes).
- Then first blank: who loves them? Probably we or people — but only personal pronouns allowed.
- So likely: We love mangoes. They are the best food...
✔ Answers:
- First blank: *We*
- Second blank: *They*
➡️ "We love ripe and juicy mangoes. They are the best food on a hot day."
---
#### 9. A dog is a domestic animal. A fox is a wild animal. But _________ both belong to the canine family.
- "Both" refers to dog and fox → two animals → plural.
- So we need a pronoun that refers to both → they
- "But they both belong..."
✔ Answer: *they*
➡️ "But they both belong to the canine family."
---
#### 10. Meena was known as the iron lady of India. _________ was a very good lady.
- Meena is a woman → so pronoun is she.
