Choose the correct collective noun from the options below and fill in the blanks.
A ____ of pencils rolled off the desk.
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 3
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."
