Explanation for Question 5 From the Writing Section on the 2020 October Sat
So question number five is asking us about this sentence where we say many 2 technicians are a musician themselves. 3 And the first thing we can ask ourselves is about this word technicians. 4 Is it plural or singular? And we know that technicians is plural, 5 right? So when you talk about a musician and needs to be a plural 6 musicians, because you can't have multiple technicians being one musician. 7 So it has to be plural and plural. And that's why a and B 8 will not work for this question. Now, the difference between C and D is 9 themselves or him or herself. 10 And again, we want to pick the one that showcases something plural selves, 11 right with the S is plural. Whereas him or her self does 12 not have the S right. It's singular. Since we want to pick the one 13 that's plural, our correct answer is C.
