Flashcards: Pronouns

Since 1988, the mission of molecular gastronomy has shifted. Kurti and This originally sought to investigate “kitchen old wives’ tales,” invent new recipes, improve old ones, and make the case to the public that science was a useful part of everyday life. Even if 1 their experiments weren’t intended to be replicated in home kitchens, they were intended to encourage home cooks to experiment. Today, molecular gastronomists seek to explore the social, artistic, and technical aspects of food preparation. Some have argued that this shift in focus, along with the fact that techniques in molecular gastronomy have so far surpassed what any home cook could do, means that molecular gastronomy has lost its ability to impact how the world cooks at home.

Your answer:

its

Your answer:

there

Your answer:

it’s

Correct answer:

NO CHANGE

Explanation:

The first decision you should make with this problem is whether you need to use the possessive. Since the experiments in question were the ones done by This and Kurti, you need a possessive pronoun to indicate this fact, eliminating "there" and "it's". And since the experiments were done by two people, you need a plural pronoun. Eliminate "its" since it is both singular and refers to non-humans. "Their" is correct since it is possessive and refers to an item belonging to multiple people.

The traditional view of archaeologists usually involves a college professor who spends much of his or her time digging and researching in ancient foreign libraries or a museum curator who works every day to preserve the artifacts the museum holds. While this view isn’t completely incorrect, it is incomplete, both in terms of the types of jobs available to archaeologists and in terms of the types of work within those jobs. For example, college professors may spend summers at dig sites, but much of their time is also spent writing grants, teaching students, and writing about their research projects. Additionally, although there are still many people who work in archaeology as professors and museum curators, the demand for 1 this job far outstrips the number of positions available, making the positions difficult to acquire.

Correct answer:

these jobs

Explanation:

Whenever the SAT gives you a choice between a singular or a plural noun, it is probably testing some form of noun agreement. Just like pronouns have to agree with the nouns they refer to, nouns must also be consistent. The question you should ask yourself, therefore, is what the noun is referring back to. In this case, the word "job" refers to the positions of curators and museum curators. Because multiple people want these jobs (and because there is more than one job), you must have a plural noun here, making "these jobs," the only viable option.
