Here are the correct answers for your English grammar questions, along with brief explanations for each. 1. Whose book is that? It’s...

  • Correct Answer: c) hers
  • Explanation: In this sentence, we need a possessive pronoun to replace "her book."
    • Her (a) is a possessive adjective and must be followed by a noun (e.g., "It's her book").
    • Hers (c) stands alone and indicates ownership without repeating the noun.

2. Who advised you to choose this profession? My father...

  • Correct Answer: d) did
  • Explanation: When answering a question asked in the Past Simple tense ("Who advised..."), we use the auxiliary verb did to avoid repeating the main verb.
    • "My father did" is short for "My father advised me."
    • Options like does (present) or has done (present perfect) do not match the tense of the original question.

3. ... is Dan’s sister? She is a secretary at our college.

  • Correct Answer: c) what
  • Explanation: While this may seem counterintuitive if you are looking for a name, the answer provided ("She is a secretary") describes her profession/occupation.
    • In English, when asking about someone's job or role, we use What.
    • If the answer had been a name (e.g., "She is Jane"), the question would have used Who.
    • How, Where, and When do not fit the context of identifying a person's professional status.

I can provide a set of similar practice exercises on possessive pronouns or auxiliary verbs if you would like to test these rules further.
