Question 3 • FL-1001370-English 3 A

In which sentence is a contraction used incorrectly?

Answer
A
We’re all riding our bicycles.
B
I’d planned on paying the fee.
C
We’d changed the final objective.
D
You’re circumstances are different.

Explanation

In D, “You’re” means “you are,” so the sentence says “You are circumstances are different,” which is incorrect. The possessive word “your” is needed to show that the circumstances belong to you. The other contractions are used correctly: “we’re” means “we are,” and “I’d” and “we’d” mean “I had” and “we had.”
