Solution

The correct option is B False
Second person pronouns can be used in the subjective, accusative (objective) or possessive case. 'Yours' is a possessive second person pronoun because it shows a sense of ownership and possession. It indicates something to be belonging to someone. Hence Option B is correct because 'yours' is not an accusative second person pronoun. In this sentence, 'you' is the subjective second person pronoun and there is no accusative second person pronoun which should act as the object pronoun of the sentence,
