Cannot one do what one likes with his own ?

  • A.Cannot one
  • B.do what
  • C.one likes
  • D.with his own

Answer: D

The error is in part (4), with his own.

When the indefinite pronoun 'one' is the subject, the possessive that refers back to it should also be 'one's', not 'his': 'Cannot one do what one likes with one's own?' The sentence already keeps 'one' consistent in parts (1) and (3), so part (4) should match.

'Cannot one', 'do what' and 'one likes' are all correct as they stand.
