Question

Which of the following sentences are the pronoun and antecedent not in agreement?

A. If the oven is turned on now, he will have time to preheat.
B. Many times the sky opened up and it rained
C. Robert was tired because he stayed up too late at night
D. They did not know when they would see each other again

Answer 1

A. If the oven is turned on now, he will have time to preheat.

Step-by-step explanation:

An antecedent is a word, phrase or clause that a pronoun refers to. When the pronoun and antecedent are not in agreement, the sentence is not clearly expressed, is confusing and vague.

In sentence A, the pronoun and the antecedent are not in agreement because the pronoun "he" does not match its antecedent "the oven". To fix the error, you should replace the pronoun "he" with the pronoun "it" that refers to the oven.

Answer 2

The sentence in which the pronoun and antecedent are not in agreement is A. If the oven is turned on now, he will have time to preheat.
The pronoun he is incorrect - it should be it.
