Digital PSAT Reading and Writing Practice Question 226: Answer and Explanation

Question: 226

From contracts to design to construction, the architect is there, _________ never done. It is indeed an occupation that encompasses nearly every field of work-engineering, mathematics, marketing, administration, customer service, law, and public safety are all needed in successful architecture.

Which choice completes the text so that it conforms to the conventions of Standard English?

  • A. there job
  • B. their job
  • C. our job
  • D. they're job

Correct Answer: B

Explanation:

(B) Their shows possession in the third person. Choice (A) is wrong, because there is used for places. Choice (C) would be used if the subject had been "we" instead of the "architect," and choice (D) is a contraction meaning "they are."
