  1. at

  2. in
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

'In' is the correct preposition for ingredients contained within or mixed into a dish. We say 'in the salad,' 'in the soup,' or 'in the cake' because the ingredients are inside the food. 'At' would suggest location rather than inclusion.

B Correct answer
Explanation

'Our' is a possessive adjective that modifies the noun 'school.' Possessive adjectives (my, your, his, her, its, our, their) come before nouns. 'Ours' is a possessive pronoun that stands alone, 'us' is an object pronoun, and 'mine' is first-person singular.

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

To solve this question, the user needs to understand the grammar rules for subject-verb agreement and pronoun usage. In this sentence, "uncle" is the subject, and the question is asking for the appropriate pronoun to refer to him.

The correct answer is:

B. he

Explanation: In the sentence, "uncle" is a singular third-person masculine noun, and the pronoun that refers to him must also be singular and masculine. "He" is the appropriate pronoun to use in this case. Option A ("it") is incorrect because "it" is used to refer to inanimate objects or animals, not people. Option C ("you") and option D ("me") are also incorrect because they are not appropriate pronouns to refer to the uncle.

Years are preceded by the preposition 'in.' Just as we say 'in 1990,' 'in January,' or 'in the 21st century,' we ask 'in what year.' 'At' is used for precise times (at 5 PM), and 'on' for days (on Monday).

I swim ___ the school pool.

  1. at

  2. in

  3. on

  4. none of these

Explanation

'In' is correct because we swim inside a contained body of water. 'At the pool' would mean you're at the pool facility (perhaps sitting on a chair), but not necessarily swimming in the water itself. 'On' is used for surfaces.

Explanation

'Their' is the possessive adjective for the third-person plural subject 'Ram and Arun.' It shows joint possession of the dog. 'His' is singular masculine, 'there' is an adverb indicating location, and 'them' is an object pronoun.

The dog ate ___ meal.

  1. it's

C Correct answer

'Its' is the neuter possessive pronoun for animals and things. 'It's' is a contraction of 'it is,' which doesn't make sense here. 'His' and 'her' are gendered pronouns typically used for people, not animals unless the gender is specified.
