EnglishCorrelating Sentences
- Ahis good name
- Btheir good name
- Cwhether good name
- Done’s good name
Explanation
The sentence begins with 'One', an indefinite pronoun. For consistency, the possessive should also use 'one's'. Option (a) 'his' and (b) 'their' shift pronoun, (c) 'whether good name' is nonsensical. Option (d) 'one's good name' maintains pronoun consistency with 'One'. The rule is to keep the same indefinite pronoun throughout. Hence option D is correct.
