Answer 2

Question :

Choose the correct option :

Because the first pair of pants did not fit properly, he asked for ________.

a. another pants

b. others pants

c. the others ones

d. another pair

Answer :

Option d. another pair is the correct answer.

Because the first pair of pants did not fit properly, he asked for another pair.

• 'Another' means 'an other'. There fore it clearly indicates that the noun which follows the clause 'another' is singular. But in the first case, the option is 'another pants' , where the noun 'pants' is plural. Therefore the option is cancelled out.

• The phrase 'others pants' is also not valid so is the third option 'the others ones'.

• Hence, the most appropriate option for the blank is option d. another pair.
