Solution

The correct option is A Everyone

In indefinite pronouns, 'some' is used to describe an indefinite quantity, the indefinite pronouns with 'every' are used to describe a complete quantity, and the pronouns with 'no' are used to describe an absence.

Indefinite pronouns with the word 'any' are used in sentences that are negative or to form affirmative questions.

The given sentence talks about 'swimming at the beach when the weather is nice'. People are a 'definite quantity' and so 'some' cannot be used and option B) someone is incorrect. People love to go swimming when the weather is nice and so option C) no one is incorrect. 'Anyone' is used in case of negative sentences and so option D) anyone is incorrect in the given sentence.

Therefore, the correct answer is option A) everyone.
