Question

which sentence shows the correct use of a common homophone? o this morning, shelly wore a pear of gloves to school. o i had a sandwich, some cheese, and a pear for lunch. o eduardo ate all of the apple, but he did not like the pair. o ravi noticed that the pair tree in the yard was in full bloom.

Explanation:

A homophone is a word that sounds the same as another word but has a different meaning and often a different spelling. In the sentence "Eduardo ate all of the apple, but he did not like the pair", "pair" is mis - used instead of "pear". The correct word "pear" (the fruit) is a homophone of "pair" (two of something). In the other sentences, there are no such incorrect uses of homophones.

Answer:

Eduardo ate all of the apple, but he did not like the pair.
