___ are born with a silver spoon in their mouths.

• A. this
• B. one
• C. some
• D. that

Answer 1

The correct option is C some

An indefinite pronoun is a pronoun that refers to non-specific beings, objects, or places. The pronouns that demonstrate (point out) some particular persons or things are called demonstrative pronouns.

In the given sentence there is no indication of any demonstration.

This and that are demonstrative pronouns. We can thus eliminate options A and D as incorrect.

In the given sentence the verb is a plural one. So, the subject must also be a plural noun. Thus option C is the correct answer. Option B is incorrect as it is singular noun.
