A Correct answer
Explanation

This is a conditional sentence using the imperative mood. "If she calls me" sets up a condition, and the imperative form "tell her to leave a message" gives the instruction. Option B uses past tense "I told" which doesn't match. Option C uses conditional perfect "would have" which changes the meaning.

A Correct answer
Explanation

When talking about meal times, we use "at" - "at breakfast," "at lunch," "at dinner." This treats the meal time as a specific point in the day. "In" would suggest being inside the meal itself, and "on" doesn't work with time expressions in this way.

B Correct answer
Explanation

When someone is in bed for sleep, we use "in bed" without an article. This means being under the covers, ready for or in the state of sleep. "At bed" would mean beside the furniture, and "on bed" would mean physically on top of the mattress, which isn't the natural expression.

  3. his

  4. it
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

This requires a possessive pronoun to show ownership of a second car. The sentence contrasts "my car" (first person) with another person's car. "His" is the possessive form for a male. "Him" is object case, "their" is plural, and "it" is for things/animals, not people.

  4. none of these
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

After the verb "told," we need an object pronoun to receive the action. "Us" is the object form of "we." The teacher told the story to us. "We" is subject form, "he" is the wrong gender and subject form. The structure is "told [object] [noun phrase]."

  4. none of these
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

This shows possession using a possessive pronoun. "That coat of his" means "that coat belonging to him." The structure "of + possessive pronoun" emphasizes ownership. "Him" is object case, "her" is the wrong possessive form.

  2. we

  3. us

  4. none of these
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

After the preposition "with," we need an object pronoun. "Stay with us" is correct because "us" is the object form of "we." The phrase means the listener stayed with the speakers. "He" is subject form and wrong person, "we" is subject form.

Multiple choice softskills leadership

Her uncle is a doctor, isn't ___?

  1. it

  2. he

  3. you

  4. me
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

In a tag question, the pronoun refers back to the subject of the main clause. The subject is "Her uncle" (male), so the tag refers to a male person. "He" is correct. "It" is for things, "you" and "me" don't refer to the uncle.

Multiple choice softskills leadership

She has an apple in ___ hand.

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

To solve this question, the user needs to know the correct usage of pronouns and their corresponding gender.

Now, let's go through each option and explain why it is right or wrong:

A. his: This option is incorrect because "his" is a possessive pronoun used for males. In this sentence, the subject is a female, so the possessive pronoun should be changed to match her gender.

B. she: This option is incorrect because "she" is not a possessive pronoun. It is a subject pronoun used to refer to females.

C. her: This option is correct. "Her" is a possessive pronoun used to refer to a female subject. In this sentence, "her" correctly refers to the female subject who has an apple in her hand.

D. my: This option is incorrect because "my" is a possessive pronoun used to refer to the speaker. In this sentence, the subject is not the speaker, so this option is incorrect.

The Answer is: C.

Multiple choice softskills leadership

It was my brother who went with ___.

  1. he

  2. they

  3. him

  4. my
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

To solve this question, the user needs to understand the concept of pronouns and how they are used in a sentence to refer to a noun.

The sentence is incomplete and requires a pronoun to refer to the person who went with someone. The correct pronoun to use in this sentence is "him" because it is the object of the preposition "with". Option A, "he", is incorrect because it is a subject pronoun and not an object pronoun. Option B, "they", is incorrect because it refers to multiple people and the sentence only refers to one person. Option D, "my", is incorrect because it is a possessive pronoun and does not make sense in the context of the sentence.

Therefore, the correct answer is:

The answer is: C. him
