Collective Noun

Question:

Choose the correct collective noun from the options below and fill in the blanks.

A ____ of pencils rolled off the desk.

Options:

Set

Collection

Bundle

Batch

Correct Answer:

Bundle

Explanation:

The correct collective noun for a group of pencils is "Bundle." OPTION 3

Explanation:

Set typically refers to a group of related items.

Collection can refer to a variety of items gathered together, but it's not as specific as "bundle" for pencils.

Batch usually refers to a quantity of items produced or processed together.

Bundle specifically refers to a group of items bound together, which fits well with pencils that can be bundled together for sale or transport.

So, the correct sentence would be: "A bundle of pencils rolled off the desk."
