Which is the best correction for the inappropriate shift in pronoun in this passage?

The players were all exhausted after their parade. Celebrating tires him out as much as playing.

A. Change "hi" to "them."
B. Change "their" to "our."
C. Change "their" to "one."
D. Change "you" to "her."

Answer 1

A. Change "him" to "them."

Step-by-step explanation:

It makes more sense to say, "Celebrating tires them out as much as playing," because it wasn't just him that celebrating caused to be tiring, it was all of them. So it would make more sense to say "them."
