Question

Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
She showed me some pictures ____ were very interesting.

• A. that
• B. all
• C. their
• D. they

Answer 1

The correct option is A that

In the given sentence, the word 'interesting' is used to modify the pictures shown by the subject. Thus, there must be a pronoun that connects the sentence to the adjective 'interesting', which will also refer to the noun 'pictures'. Thus, the correct answer must be a relative pronoun.

Option A is correct. 'that' is a relative pronoun. Thus, it joins the sentence to the adjective 'interesting' and also refers to the noun 'pictures', and is the correct answer.

Option B is incorrect. 'all' is an adjective and not a pronoun. Thus, it is not the correct answer.

Option C is incorrect. 'their' is an accusative pronoun. Further, it is used to refer to people and not things. Thus, it is the incorrect answer.

Option D is incorrect. 'they', again is an accusative pronoun. Further, it is used to refer to people and not things. Thus, it is the incorrect answer.
