Answer :

The task requires you to complete sentences using appropriate possessive pronouns or adjectives. Here's how you can fill in the blanks:

  1. This is my camera, that one is his.

    This uses possessive pronouns. 'My' is used for something belonging to the speaker, and 'his' is used for something belonging to a male third person.

  2. It's raining, so we stayed in our hotel.

    Here, 'so' is a conjunction showing reason, and 'our' is a possessive adjective showing something belongs to us.

  3. He wants to go to the beach, but his sister wants to go to the mountains.

    'But' is a conjunction showing contrast, and 'his' is a possessive pronoun indicating the sister belongs to the male person.

  4. We packed our bags and took the plane.

    'Our' is a possessive adjective showing that the bags belong to the speaker and others, and 'and' is a conjunction connecting two actions.

  5. This room is mine, the balcony is yours.

    'Mine' and 'yours' are possessive pronouns indicating ownership. 'Mine' means it belongs to me, and 'yours' indicates it belongs to you.

  6. That beach towel is theirs.

    'Theirs' is a possessive pronoun indicating that the beach towel belongs to someone else, usually a group.

  7. This passport is not his.

    'His' is a possessive pronoun indicating it isn't owned by the male person being discussed.

  8. The blue suitcase is hers.

    'Hers' is a possessive pronoun indicating ownership by a female person.

  9. These tickets are ours.

    'Ours' is a possessive pronoun indicating the tickets belong to a group including the speaker.

  10. The big hotel room is theirs.

'Theirs' again indicates ownership by a group or person being spoken about.
