Question

fill in with possesive demonstrarive or interogative _______worker has fallen ill

Answer 1

One worker has fallen ill

Answer 2

Explanation:

When the subject and the object of the verb is the same person or thing, we use a reflexive pronoun. When reflexive pronouns are used to put emphasis on a particular noun, they are called emphatic pronouns.

The subject and object of the first sentence is 'children'.

'Themselves' is the reflexive pronoun for third person plural. So, the first answer must be 'themselves'.

We can thus eliminate options A and B as incorrect answers.

The reflexive pronoun for singular third person is 'himself','herself' or 'itself' according to the gender of the noun. Since the subject and object of the second sentence is a female, the answer must be 'herself'.

Thus option C is the correct answer and option D is incorrect.
