Question

select the correct answer.
which word best completes the sentence?
______ deben seguir las leyes de su país.
a. nadie
b. alguien
c. ni
d. todos

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze the Spanish sentence "__ deben seguir las leyes de su país" (__ must follow the laws of their country). We look at the meaning of each option:

• A. "Nadie" means "nobody". If we use this, the sentence would mean "Nobody must follow the laws", which is illogical.
• B. "Alguien" means "someone". The verb "deben" is plural (they must), but "alguien" is singular, so it doesn't agree in number.
• C. "Ni" is a conjunction (neither/nor) and doesn't fit as a subject here.
• D. "Todos" means "everyone/ all (people)". It is plural and makes sense in the context: "Todos deben seguir las leyes de su país" (Everyone must follow the laws of their country).

Answer:

D. Todos
