The phrase that should replace the vague pronoun "them" in context is "their brains," as is expressed in option D and explained below.

<h3>What is a vague pronoun?</h3>

We say a sentence has a vague pronoun when it is not clear to whom or what that pronoun refers. In sentence 4, the pronoun "them" is considered vague because we are not sure what it is about.

However, through context, we can tell "them" should be replaced by the phrase "their brains." The context reveals that "them" will be scanned by a brain imaging machine. What is scanned by such a machine? Brains.

With the information above in mind, we can select option D as the correct answer.

Help!!!!!!!
Alex73 [517]
My Gran is my hero. She is brilliant and loves to read. She also gets bored easily. As a young girl, she struggled a great deal. Because of this she ran away at the age of 21 and moved to the west coast. When she got there she chose to educate herself. She chose studies over security, as well as living in poverty. She ended up getting a job teaching at a university. She ended up marrying and having a beautiful family. Because she never stopped learning, she died with a burning curiosity about her life.
