Answer 1

The sentence with correct pronoun-antecedent agreement is:

Mrs. Smith was excited to teach her class.

In this sentence, "her" correctly refers to the antecedent "Mrs. Smith."

The other sentences contain errors in pronoun-antecedent agreement:

• The twins laughing so hard should use "they" instead of "she."
• "Raindrops" is plural, so it should use "they" instead of "it."
• "The brothers" is plural, so it should use "they" instead of "he."
