Question

Which sentence matches pronouns and antecedents correctly? All of the girls on the baseball team had her cap on backwards. The tall man wore a big yellow hat on his head. The graduates took off their mortarboards and threw it into the air with glee. Years ago, men were expected to take his hat off when he went inside.

Answer 1

Answer:

The tall man wore a big yellow hat on his head.

Explanation:

This is the correct answer because the antecedent is the "tall man". This is a singular noun. Man also tells us it will refer to the pronouns denoting a male gender, in this case "his". Therefore, "The tall man wore a big yellow hat on his head." is correct.
