1. I bought some a) apples b) apple's c) apples'
- The correct answer is c) apples'. The apostrophe is used to indicate possession in this case. Since you are buying multiple apples, you need to use the plural form of "apples" and add an apostrophe after the s to show that the apples belong to someone or something.

2. I went to flat. a) Adams b) Adams' c) Adam's
- The correct answer is a) Adams. In this sentence, "flat" is a general term and does not require any possession. Therefore, no apostrophe is needed. The name "Adams" is simply being used to identify which flat you went to.

3. I bought them at the _. a) grocer's b) grocers' c) grocer

4. That the quickest. a) ways b) way's c) ways'

7. The cat was left on own. a) its b) it's
