Question

read the sentence.
take the cups off the saucers, and put them back in the cabinet.
which answer corrects the ambiguous pronoun use in the sentence?
take the cups off the saucers, and put those back in their cabinet.
take the cups off the saucers, and put the cups back in the cabinet.
take the cups off the saucers, and put them back in their cabinet.
take the cups off the saucers, and put that back in the cabinet.

Explanation:

The original sentence has an ambiguous pronoun "them" which could refer to cups or saucers. To fix this, we need to replace the ambiguous pronoun with the specific noun it refers to (cups, as the action is about moving cups off saucers and storing them). The correct option removes the ambiguity by using the clear noun phrase instead of the vague pronoun.

Answer:

Take the cups off the saucers, and put the cups back in the cabinet.
