Question

Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
Miss Snow, ______ you met at the theatre, is my classmate.

• A. who
• B. whom
• C. where
• D. that

Answer 1

The correct option is B whom

Relative pronouns have two functions- Like other pronouns they stand for a noun or pronoun placed before them and like conjunctions they join subclauses with main clause and start the adjective clause.

In the given sentence the subject is Miss Snow.

"Who" is always used to set up a relative clause that describes a person, while "that" is used to describe an object or another non-human being.

'Whom' is the objective form of 'who' and must be used to refer to the object of a verb or preposition. We use ‘whom’ to ask which person received an action.

'Where' is used in case of places.

In the given sentence the Miss Snow is the receiver of the action, 'whom' must be used.

Thus option B is the correct answer.

Options A,C,D are incorrect.
