A personal pronoun is a pronoun that is associated with a particular person, like ‘he’, ‘she’ and ‘they’. While an impersonal pronoun is commonly used to speak about inanimate objects/things. 'It’ is an impersonal pronoun that is used for this purpose. Since the subject of the sentence is a person, ‘it’ cannot be used. Thus option A is incorrect. Further, under personal pronoun, we use ‘he’ for third-person singular, ‘they’ for third person plural and ‘we’ for first person plural. As the sentence speaks about ‘Mr. Kim’ in the third person and since it is just one person, we must use ‘he’. Thus option B is correct, while options C and D are incorrect.

But additionally, an impersonal pronoun is also used to refer to young children or babies. ‘It’ is an impersonal pronoun that is used for this purpose. The given sentence the subject is a ‘baby’ therefore ‘it’ would be the apt answer. Thus option D is correct. On the other hand, ‘he’ and ‘she’ cannot be used since it is a ‘baby’. We don’t use masculine or feminine pronouns for a ‘babies’unless providing special emphasis to their gender’ Since that is not the case here options A and B are incorrect. ‘They’ is a personal pronoun used to denote a subject that occurs in the plural form. As the subject is singular, option C is incorrect. 

An impersonal pronoun is commonly used to speak about impersonal things/ideas. ‘It’ is an impersonal pronoun that is used for this purpose. In the given sentence the verb denotes an impersonal action, i.e. an action that is not performed by a person. In such a case ‘it’ is used as the subject. Thus option D is correct. On the other hand, ‘Mine’ and ‘Yours’ are possessive pronouns that are used to talk about things that belong to people. Since the sentence doesn’t speak about belonging, options A and B are incorrect. Similarly ‘What’ is an interrogative pronoun that is used to pose a question, which is not apt here as the sentence is not an interrogative sentence. Thus option C is incorrect.

The pronoun in the sentence is ‘It’. It is an impersonal pronoun that is used to denote an inanimate object/thing. Thus option B is correct. Whereas a personal pronoun is a pronoun that is associated with a particular person, like ‘he’, ‘she’ and ‘they’. Since ‘It’ is the pronoun used and as 'it' doesn’t refer to a person option A is incorrect. On the other hand, interrogative pronouns that are used for asking questions, for example, ‘what’, ‘who’ and ‘which’. Thus option C is incorrect. Similarly, option D is unsuitable because possessive pronouns are used to talk about things that belong to people. The words ‘mine’, ‘yours’, ‘his’ ‘her’ etc are examples of possessive pronouns. Thus option D is incorrect.

Since the second sentence speaks about a person and the third sentence highlights an object, ‘it’ and ‘she’ cannot be used in the first and second blank respectively. Thus option A is incorrect. The first blank should be filled with ‘she’ since it denotes ‘Ginny’ and the second blank should be filled with ‘it’ as it replaces the noun ‘laptop’. Thus option B is correct. Further ‘What’ cannot be used in both blanks because it is an interrogative pronoun that is used to pose a question. Since the sentence doesn’t pose any questions ‘what’ is unsuitable. Thus options C and D are incorrect.
