Explanation for Each Answer:
1.
Who — Used to ask about a person (subject form). “Who is that girl?” asks for identity.
2.
everything — A compound indefinite pronoun meaning “all things.” Fits context: “Don’t believe all things you hear.”
3.
whom / I — “With whom” is the correct formal object form after a preposition (“with”). “I” is the subject of “am speaking.” So: “With whom am I speaking?”
4.
his / himself — “His” shows possession (the car belongs to him). “Himself” is a reflexive pronoun — he did the action alone, without help.
5.
Everyone — An indefinite pronoun meaning “every person.” Fits: “Everyone loves her” = all people love her.
6.
Whose — Possessive pronoun asking ownership: “Whose car...?” = to whom does the car belong?
7.
either — Used when choosing between two options. “I don’t want either of them” = I want neither one.
8.
yourself — Reflexive pronoun used after “make” in the phrase “make yourself at home” (a common idiom).
9.
something — Indefinite pronoun meaning “an unknown thing.” “I smell something burning!” = I detect an unidentified burning thing.
10.
whoever — Subject pronoun meaning “any person who.” “Give this pen to whoever wants it” = to any person who desires it.
11.
both — Used when referring to two things or people. “Hold the box with both hands” = use your left and right hand.
12.
your — Possessive pronoun showing ownership. “How was your day?” = how was the day belonging to you?
13.
him — Object pronoun (used as the object of the verb “gave”). “She gave it to him” — “him” receives the action.
