Let’s go through each sentence one by one and pick the best question word from the box to make it make sense.
We have these words to choose from:
Why, What, How, When, Who, Where (some are repeated, but we just need to use the right one for each blank).
---
1. ________ is your grandmother?
This is asking about a person — “your grandmother”. So we ask
Who.
→ *Who is your grandmother?*
---
2. ________ is the time of the meeting?
This is asking for specific information — “the time”. We usually say “What time...” but here the word “time” is already in the sentence, so we use
What.
→ *What is the time of the meeting?*
(Alternatively, you could say “When is the meeting?” — but since “time” is mentioned, “What” fits better with “the time”.)
Wait — let’s double-check. If someone says “What is the time?”, that’s correct. But if they say “When is the meeting?”, that’s also correct. Here, the sentence says “is the time of the meeting”, so “What” matches “the time”.
Yes →
What
---
3. ________ is the room messed up?
This is asking for a reason — why is it messy? So we use
Why.
→ *Why is the room messed up?*
---
4. ________ is your best friend?
Again, this is asking about a person — “your best friend”. So we use
Who.
→ *Who is your best friend?*
---
5. ________ is my watch?
This is asking about location — where did I put it? So we use
Where.
→ *Where is my watch?*
---
Now let’s list them all:
1. Who
2. What
3. Why
4. Who
5. Where
(Note: The 6th question is cut off in the image, so we only do 1–5 as shown.)
Final Answer:
1. Who
2. What
3. Why
4. Who
5. Where
