Answer 2

Answer:

"I began work on it on Christmas Eve" - Here "it" stands for The roll-top desk (option c).

Explanation:

• The given line is taken from the story "The Best Christmas Present In The World" by Michael Morpurgo.
• In a junk shop in Bridport, the author spotted a roll-top desk.
• It was made in 19th century and it was purely made of oak.
• Though it was in poor condition - the roll-top in several pieces, one leg clumsily mended and scorch marks all down one side, the author wanted to buy and restore it.
• Though it was a challenging work, the author paid for the desk and brought it back to his workroom at the back of the garage.
• He started working on it on the Eve of Christmas in order to restore it.
• In the desk, he found a secret drawer which contained a letter addressing to a woman named Connie from her husband Jim.

Thus in the given line "it" stands for the roll-top desk.
