Fill Blanks

Question:

Select the correct homonym from the given options to fill in the blank.

I wonder if the committee members changed ________ plans.

Options:

they’re

their

dare

there

Correct Answer:

their

Explanation:

The correct homonym to fill in the blank is their.

The sentence is about the committee members and their plans. The word "their" is the possessive form of the pronoun "they", which means belonging to them. In this context, the speaker is saying that the committee members changed their plans.

The other options are not correct homonyms for the blank.

  • They're is a contraction of the words "they" and "are". It does not make sense in the sentence.
  • There is an adverb that indicates a place. It does not make sense in the sentence.
  • Dare is a verb that means to have the courage to do something. It does not make sense in the sentence.
