Question

“You are delaying the completion of the task. Send __________ contributions at the earliest.”

• A. you are
• B. your
• C. you’re
• D. yore

Hint:

- Use “your” as the possessive adjective to indicate ownership.
- “You’re” is a contraction of “you are.”
- “Yore” refers to “time long past,” and is archaic.
- Always check if the blank precedes a noun: if yes, a possessive adjective is often required.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

Step 1: The blank is followed by the word “contributions,” which is a noun. Therefore, the blank must be filled with a possessive adjective that shows ownership. Step 2: Option (A) “you are” is grammatically incorrect here, as it cannot modify a noun directly. Step 3: Option (B) “your” is the correct possessive adjective, making the sentence: “Send your contributions at the earliest.” Step 4: Option (C) “you’re” means “you are,” which is again grammatically wrong before a noun. Step 5: Option (D) “yore” means “long ago” and is irrelevant in this context. Hence, the correct choice is (B). Final Answer: (B) your
