Question

Theirs going to be a good harvest this year, or so the agriculturists say.
Choose the option that best corrects the underlined word.

• A. NO CHANGE
• B. There's
• C. Their's
• D. Theres

Answer 1

Answer: (B)

There's

The correct answer is Option B.

THEIRS is used to refer to things belonging to or associated with a group of persons. It is used as the object of a verb.

In the given sentence, there is a reference to a situation of a good harvest. THERE IS is used to refer to a situation. Thus THERE IS and not THEIRS will be the correct answer. THERE'S is a contraction of THERE IS.

The remaining options are incorrect because:

Option A- NO CHANGE is incorrect because THERE'S is the correct answer.

Option C- THEIR'S is the contraction of THEIR IS.

Option D-THERES is grammatically incorrect.
