The holiday is nearly as significant as Christmas in many Spanish-speaking regions like Puerto Rico, Spain, and Latin America, and is also celebrated in other predominately Christian nations like Russia.
For this case we have the following dialogue:
Elena: ¿De dónde eres Carlos?
Carlos: Soy de Cuba y mis compañeros son de Estados Unidos. ____________________ son (They are) de Texas.
We note that we must translate the expression in parentheses to fill in the blank.
The expression in parentheses represents the third person of the plural.
For this case, the third person in the plural is male.
Therefore, the correct word is:
"Ellos"
The complete dialogue is:
Elena: ¿De dónde eres Carlos?
Carlos: Soy de Cuba y mis compañeros son de Estados Unidos. Ellos son (They are) de Texas.
Answer:
C. Ellos
