Answer (2)
To fill in the blanks correctly, you need to use the appropriate possessive pronouns. Possessive pronouns show ownership or possession. Let's fill in each blank:
(He) His hair is short.
"His" is the possessive pronoun used for a male subject to show that the hair belongs to him.
(She) Her hair is long.
"Her" is the possessive pronoun used for a female subject to indicate that the hair belongs to her.
Mayank and Saisha have lost (they) their bike.
"Their" is the possessive pronoun used when referring to things owned by two or more people (in this case, Mayank and Saisha).
I forgot (I) my umbrella at home.
"My" is the possessive pronoun used to indicate that the umbrella belongs to the speaker.
This is (we) our car.
"Our" is the possessive pronoun used when the speaker refers to something owned by the group they are part of.
I have a brother. (He) His name is Siddharth.
Similar to number 1, "His" is the pronoun used to show that the name belongs to the brother.
Is this (you) your pen? I found it on the classroom floor.
"Your" is the possessive pronoun used to indicate the pen belongs to the person being spoken to.
(We) Our house is pretty.
Like number 5, "Our" shows that the house is owned by the group that includes the speaker.
By using the correct form of the nouns, each sentence clearly indicates who owns or possesses the item being discussed.
The correct possessive pronouns for the blanks are "His" for the first two, "Their" for Mayank and Saisha, "My" for the speaker, "Our" for the group, and "Your" for the person being addressed. These pronouns show the ownership of the items in each sentence clearly. Each answer is intended to clearly communicate whom the items belong to.
