A Correct answer
Explanation

When talking about visiting a beach as a location, we use the preposition "at." "At the beach" means you're at that general location. "In the beach" would mean inside the sand itself, and "on the beach" means physically on top of the sand, which doesn't fit the swimming context.

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.

My car is new, but ___ is old.

  1. him

  2. their

  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.

We are glad that you could stay with ___.

  1. he

  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.
