Nineteenth Century England — Test

Question 9 • British Literature and Composition

Read the sentence. If writers want to reach more readers, you can write a blog. What should replace the underlined pronoun to correct the pronoun shift error?

Answer
A
I
B
he
C
they
D
us

Explanation

The sentence begins with “writers,” so the pronoun should stay in third person and refer back to those writers. Replace “you” with “they”: “If writers want to reach more readers, they can write a blog.” “I” and “he” do not match the plural noun, and “us” does not fit the sentence.
