Answers With Explanation:

1. b) either (Either, Neither, Each ইত্যাদি Distributive Pronoun, কারণ এগুলো ব্যক্তি বা বস্তুকে আলাদা আলাদাভাবে নির্দেশ করে।)

2. b) both a & c (Who, Which, What প্রশ্ন করতে ব্যবহৃত হলে Interrogative Pronoun এবং বাক্যের মধ্যে সম্পর্ক স্থাপন করলে Relative Pronoun হিসেবে কাজ করে। তাই সঠিক উত্তর both a & c।)

3. b) You, he and I were present in the class. (সাধারণ কাজের ক্ষেত্রে Person বসানোর নিয়ম হলো 231 (Second person, Third person, First person). তাই You (2), he (3) and I (1) সঠিক।)

4. c) I, you and he are guilty. (দোষ স্বীকার করার ক্ষেত্রে Person বসানোর নিয়ম হলো 123 (First person, Second person, Third person). তাই I (1), you (2) and he (3) সঠিক।)

5. b) I ('Neither... nor' দ্বারা যুক্ত বাক্যে verb এর নিকটবর্তী subject অনুযায়ী verb বসে। এখানে 'have' আছে, তাই 'I' হবে। এছাড়াও subject অবস্থানে nominative case বসে।)

6. c) Let Ruma and me go. (Let এর পরে সবসময় Objective form (me, us, him, her, them) বসে। তাই Let Ruma and me go সঠিক।)

7. d) me (Preposition (between) এর পরে Pronoun এর Objective form বসে। তাই 'me' সঠিক।)

8. a) I (Be verb (was/is/are) এর পর complement হিসেবে Pronoun এর Nominative form বসে। তাই 'It was I' সঠিক।)

9. b) her marrying (Gerund (marrying) এর পূর্বে Possessive Adjective (her) বসে। তাই 'her marrying' সঠিক।)

10. c) himself (Self বা selves যুক্ত Pronoun কে Reflexive Pronoun বলে। যেমন: himself, myself, themselves।)

11. c) those (This, That, These, Those হলো Demonstrative Pronoun যা কোনো কিছুকে নির্দেশ করতে ব্যবহৃত হয়।)

12. a) different from those of any other person. (তুলনা সবসময় সমজাতীয় জিনিসের মধ্যে হতে হয়। Finger prints এর সাথে finger prints এর তুলনা করতে 'those of' ব্যবহার করা হয়েছে।)

13. c) One of my friends is a lawyer. (One of এর পরে Noun টি Plural হয় কিন্তু Verb টি Singular হয়। তাই 'friends' এবং 'is' সঠিক।)

14. d) one's (Subject যদি 'One' হয়, তবে Possessive case হিসেবে 'one's' ব্যবহৃত হয়।)

15. b) his (Everyone, Everybody, Each ইত্যাদি থাকলে Possessive হিসেবে সাধারণত 'his' ব্যবহৃত হয়।)

QUESTIONS

BCS Questions

01. She insisted on ______ leaving the house. [45th BCS]

A. he

B. him

C. himself

D. his

A. Pronoun

B. conjunction

C. adjective

D. adverb

Ans: A

(Explanation: Here, "that" points out a specific person or thing and stands alone (it does not modify a noun). It functions as a Demonstrative Pronoun.)

03. Which one of the following words is an example of a distributive pronoun? [38th BCS]
