“You are delaying the completion of the task. Send _______ contributions at the earliest.”

  • A.you are
  • B.your
  • C.you’re
  • D.yore

Answer: B

The blank takes the possessive determiner your: “Send your contributions at the earliest.”

The word in the blank must qualify the noun contributions, so it has to be a possessive form. Your is the possessive of you.

You are and its contraction you’re are subject and verb, which make no sense before a noun here (“Send you are contributions”). Yore is an archaic noun meaning long ago, as in “days of yore”, and only sounds like your. The question tests exactly this set of homophones.
