Pronoun Agreement C2 (M)
Directions: The question presents a sentence, all or part of which is underlined. Beneath the sentence you will find five ways of phrasing the underlined part. The first of these repeats the original; the other four are different. If you think the original is best, choose the first answer; otherwise choose one of the others.
The troop of performers entertained their audience with some death defying stunts and acrobatics.
(2) is grammatically the most correct option. (1) is incorrect because the pronoun 'their' is showing possession over 'audience' which is incorrect. (3) is incorrect because of use of an objective pronoun (them) to refer to a noun (troop). (4) and (5) are incorrect because 'these/those' are used to refer to plural nouns.
