Question

Identify the error in the sentence at the underlined point:

Helen's mother thought that she was the best dancer in the class, but that may be a biased opinion. [Advanced]

• A. NO CHANGE
• B. Helen
• C. they
• D. one

Answer 1

The correct option is B Helen

The pronoun is used in place of a noun. Here, the nouns are 'Helen' and 'Helen's mother' and the suitable pronoun for both the nouns is 'she'. However, the use of the pronoun 'she' would be ambiguous. Therefore, to avoid such ambiguity, the correct option here is: B) Helen.
