Front

____ gatto nero (his)

Back

il suo

Answer explanation

The correct choice is 'il suo' because it means 'his' and agrees in gender and number with 'gatto nero' (black cat), which is masculine singular. 'La sua' would be for feminine nouns, while 'nostro' and 'la nostra' do not mean 'his'.

Front

Back

il tuo

Answer explanation

The correct answer is 'il tuo' because 'quaderno' is masculine singular. 'Il tuo' means 'your' in the masculine form, while 'la tua' and 'la sua' are feminine, and 'la mia' means 'my', which is incorrect.

Front

i loro

Front

____ figlie (my)
