Q1  15
Q1 15

Question 1: Maria loves her dog. ___ dog is very friendly.

Question 1 options
'Your' is correct because it is a possessive adjective showing that the dog belongs to the person being spoken to. 'You're' is a contraction of 'you are' and cannot show possession. 'Yours' and 'You' do not function as possessive adjectives before a noun.
Q2 15

Question 2: Tom looks tired today. ___ going to bed early tonight.

Question 2 options
'You're' is correct because it is a contraction of 'you are,' which fits the sentence meaning 'You are going to bed early.' 'Your' is a possessive adjective and cannot replace 'you are.' 'Yours' and 'You' do not form a correct contraction here.
Q3 15

Question 3: 'You're' is a possessive adjective used to show that something belongs to someone.

Question 3 options
False because 'you're' is a contraction of 'you are,' not a possessive adjective. 'Your' is the possessive adjective used to show ownership or association.
Q4 15

Question 4: Which situation correctly uses 'your'?

Question 4 options
'Your' is a possessive adjective used to show that something belongs to or is associated with the person being spoken to. Only the option about ownership of a bag correctly demonstrates this use.
Q5 15

Question 5: Arrange the words to make a correct sentence:

Question 5 options
  • bag
  • on the chair
  • Your
  • is

Drag items or use arrows to arrange them in the correct order.

The correct order is 'Your bag is on the chair' because 'Your' is the possessive adjective that must come before the noun 'bag,' followed by the verb 'is' and the location phrase.
Q6 15

Question 6: Which sentence is grammatically correct?

Question 6 options
'You're late for class' is correct because 'you're' is the contraction of 'you are,' which fits before an adjective. The other sentences incorrectly use 'your' where 'you're' is needed, or 'you're' where 'your' is needed.
Q7 15

Question 7: Friend A: 'I hear you did well on the test!' Friend B: '___ the best student in our class!'

Question 7 options
'You're' is correct here because it is the contraction of 'you are,' making the sentence mean 'You are the best student.' 'Your' is a possessive adjective and cannot be used before an adjective phrase like 'the best student.'
Q8 15

Question 8: Which sentence correctly uses 'your' instead of 'you're'?

Question 8 options
'Is this your phone?' correctly uses 'your' as a possessive adjective before the noun 'phone.' The other options incorrectly use 'your' where 'you're' (you are) is needed.
Q9 15

Question 9: Put the words in the correct order:

Question 9 options
  • gift
  • You're
  • going to love
  • your

Drag items or use arrows to arrange them in the correct order.

The correct order is 'You're going to love your gift' because 'You're' (you are) starts the sentence as the subject contraction, followed by 'going to love' as the verb phrase, and 'your gift' uses the possessive adjective before the noun.
Q10 15

Question 10: The teacher said, 'Please open ___ books to page ten.'

Question 10 options
'Your' is correct because it is a possessive adjective showing that the books belong to the students being addressed. 'You're' means 'you are' and cannot come before a noun to show possession.
Q11 15

Question 11: Which statement about the difference between 'your' and 'you're' is true?

Question 11 options
'Your' is a possessive adjective and 'you're' is a contraction of 'you are.' They are different word types with different functions, so they cannot be used in the same way.
Q12 15

Question 12: Rewrite using the full form: 'You're happy today.' → ___ happy today.

Question 12 options
'You are' is correct because 'you're' is a contraction of 'you are,' so expanding it gives 'You are happy today.' The other options are not the full form of 'you're.'
Q13 15

Question 13: Match each sentence to the correct grammar label.

Question 13 options
Your coat is on the chair.
You're very kind to me.
Is this your phone?
You're going to be late.
Possessive adjective in a question
Contraction of 'you are' before a verb phrase
Possessive adjective before a noun
Contraction of 'you are' before an adjective

Select an item on the left, then tap its match on the right.

'Your' is a possessive adjective used before nouns to show ownership. 'You're' is a contraction of 'you are' used before adjectives, verbs, or nouns in predicate position.
Q14 15

Question 14: You can always replace 'you're' with 'you are' in a sentence and it will still be correct.

Question 14 options
True because 'you're' is simply a contraction of 'you are.' Contractions can always be expanded to their full form without changing the meaning or grammar of the sentence.
Q15 15

Question 15: Which sentence uses 'you're' correctly to express that someone is doing well?

Question 15 options
'You're doing a great job' correctly uses 'you're' as a contraction of 'you are' before a verb phrase, expressing that the person is performing well. The other options incorrectly use 'your' where 'you're' is needed, or mix up the two words.
