Question 6 • AZ-English Language Arts 9 A-CR

Which sentence shows the correct use of a common homophone?

Answer
A
The art teacher thought you’re drawing was exceptionally detailed.
B
Some of the neighbors just saw you’re dog running down the street.
C
I think you left your biology notebook on the bleachers yesterday.
D
If you want to finish the assignment, your going to need another pen.

Explanation

“Your” shows possession, so “your biology notebook” correctly means the notebook belongs to you. In A and B, “you’re” means “you are,” which does not fit before “drawing” or “dog.” In D, the sentence needs “you’re” (“you are going to need”), not the possessive “your.”
