  1. We've bought a boat for _______ .

  1. our

  2. we

  3. ourselves

  4. us

Correct Answer: 3.ourselves

Explanation:

When the same person is both the subject and the object in the sentence we use a reflexive pronoun after a verb or a preposition. 'Ourselves' is the right reflexive form of the personal pronoun 'We'.

  1. Jill didn't answer Martin. She didn't know what to tell ______ .

  1. himself

  2. his

  3. him

  4. he

Correct Answer: 3.him

Explanation:

Here the pronoun should be used in its objective form. 'him' is the right form of the personal pronoun 'he'.

  1. He went to the shop but he bought ______ .

  1. anything

  2. something

  3. everything

  4. nothing

Correct Answer: 4.nothing

Explanation:

Everything' and 'something' do not relate to the meaning of the sentence. 'Anything' is used in negative sentences. As an alternative we could use 'not anything': 'But he did not buy anything'.
