Complete the sentence by using a pronoun that agrees with its antecedent. each of my sisters has own hobby. 1) their 2) his 3) her

the correct answer is 3. her

this is so because the correct word to fill the gap is making reference to the subject "each of my sisters".

this subject is singurar due to the use of the word "each". although we have a group of people (sisters) mentioned here, the quantifier (each) singularizes the members of that group turning the subject into a singular one.

the word sister carries the female gender features.

so the referent should be singular in number and female in gender.

hi,   i believe the outlines that were supposed to be showing at the sentences, are not. could you highlight them somehow?

"the monkey's paw" is a rare story in that the theme is actually stated in the story. sgt. maj. morris tells the whites that the old fakir who put the spell on the paw said, "fate rules people's lives and those who interfere with fate do so to their sorrow." the message is a warning, but mr. white doesn't believe it. even though sgt. maj. morris makes it clear that he tried wishing with unfortunate results and he tries to throw the paw on the fire,   mr. white makes a wish for 200 pounds only to find that he receives the money when herbert dies in a factory accident. according to the fakir, then, because mr. white had wished for something he should not have had, his son lost his life.

the second wish that mrs. white encourages him to make is for herbert's return--one week after his death. when the strange knocking begins at the door during the windy night, mr. white panicks, believing that the previously dead but still mangled herbert could have walked home from the cemetary and is now at the door. because he fears what his wife will find if she opens the door, mr. white makes his third wish--for the noise to stop.

therefore, he uses his three wishes and to his sorrow, loses his son and disappoints his wife, who fervently believed that their son was at the door. she wanted him back, regardless of his condition.
