Question

Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
This is my friend _____ house is near mine.
A. Who lives in
B. Whose
C. Who is
D. In this

Answer 1

Hint: In this sentence, Conjunctions are usually used which addresses the person in the sentence by some way.
Example 1- She is the person whose name was written on the list.
Example 2- Rohit ‘s house is the office we visited in the morning.

Complete answer:
Option A- who lives in- is an incorrect answer because it doesn’t fit well with the sentence above. The person has already been introduced in the first phase of the sentence, so who cannot be used here.
Option B- whose- is the correct answer because whose is used to address somebody’s belonging or something related to someone.
Example – She is the person whose notes are with me.
Option C- who is-is an incorrect answer because it is grammatically wrong.
Example- Rohit , who is a businessman is here.
Option D- in this- is an incorrect answer because it is grammatically wrong.
This doesn’t go well in this sentence and in this is not used as a conjunction in such sentences.
Example- She is the main lead in this play.
So, option B is the correct answer.

Hence the correct answer is option ‘B’.

Note:Some examples of such Conjunctions:
-Snita is her sister who is a lawyer.
- Rohit is her brother whose house is at that end.
- She is the one who lives in this house.
- You should go else I will.
- She is good yet adamant.
Conjunctions are used to make two sentences meaningful when written together as one. Because, as, and are some Conjunctions which are commonly used but should be avoided to use proper conjunction at place.
