Pronoun Case Worksheet — 20 Exam-Style Questions
Section A — Fill in the Blank (10 Questions)
1.The award was shared between my colleague and ___ (I / me).
Answer: me
Object of preposition 'between' → objective case.
2.Please forward the file to the finance team or ___ (myself / me).
Answer: me
No matching subject to reflect back to — use plain objective 'me', not reflexive 'myself'.
3.The officer ___ (who / whom) we met yesterday has been transferred.
Answer: whom
He/him test: 'we met him' → 'him' fits → 'whom'.
4.Each of the players must carry ___ (their / his or her) own equipment.
Answer: his or her
'Each' is singular in formal exam grammar → singular pronoun.
5.The company published ___ (its / it's) quarterly results on Monday.
Answer: its
Possessive 'its' never takes an apostrophe; 'it's' is a contraction of 'it is'.
6.She types faster than ___ (I / me) [do].
Answer: I
Complete the implied clause: 'than I [type]' — subject case.
7.The three finalists congratulated ___ (each other / one another) warmly.
Answer: one another
Three or more participants → 'one another'.
8.Nobody objected to ___ (him / his) leaving the meeting early.
Answer: his
Possessive before a gerund — 'his leaving' (the action), not 'him leaving'.
9.___ (This / These) kind of question confuses most beginners.
Answer: This
'Kind' is a singular noun regardless of how many examples follow.
10.That umbrella is ___ (mine / my), not yours.
Answer: mine
Possessive pronoun 'mine' stands alone with no following noun.
Section B — Spot and Correct the Error (5 Questions)
11.Find and correct the error: 'The teacher praised my friend and I for the project.'
Answer: The teacher praised my friend and me for the project.
Compound object needs objective case 'me', not 'I'.
12.Find and correct the error: 'Kindly contact myself if you have any queries.'
Answer: Kindly contact me if you have any queries.
'Myself' cannot substitute for 'me' when there is no matching subject to reflect.
13.Find and correct the error: 'These kind of problems need urgent attention.'
Answer: This kind of problem needs urgent attention.
'Kind' is singular — takes 'this', and the following noun should also be singular.
14.Find and correct the error: 'This pen is my, not her's.'
Answer: This pen is mine, not hers.
'My' is a possessive adjective and cannot stand alone; 'hers' never takes an apostrophe.
15.Find and correct the error: 'Whom do you think will win the match?'
Answer: Who do you think will win the match?
'Who' is the subject of 'will win' — the inserted clause 'do you think' doesn't change the case.
Section C — Sentence Transformation (5 Questions)
16.Combine using the correct relative pronoun: 'The manager approved the plan. The committee had rejected the plan earlier.'
Answer: The manager approved the plan that the committee had rejected earlier.
Restrictive clause identifying which plan → 'that', no comma.
17.Rewrite to remove the double possessive error: 'He is a friend of my brother.'
Answer: He is a friend of my brother's.
Possessive relationship after 'of' with a named person requires the possessive 's, even though 'of' already shows possession.
18.Rewrite using the correct case after 'let': 'Let she and I finish the presentation.'
Answer: Let her and me finish the presentation.
The pronoun is the object of 'let' — objective case required for both.
19.Rewrite to fix the pronoun order: 'Me and him are organising the event.'
Answer: He and I are organising the event.
Subject case is required, and convention places the other person before oneself.
20.Rewrite to remove the ambiguous pronoun: 'When the manager met the client, he shared the report.' (Make clear it was the manager who shared it.)
Answer: When the manager met the client, the manager shared the report.
Naming the noun directly removes the ambiguity of an unclear 'he'.
