Choose the correct collective noun from the options below and fill in the blanks. A ____ of pencils rolled off the desk. |
Set Collection Bundle Batch |
Bundle |
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." |
