Select the most appropriate option to fill in blank number 5. Children, (5) basic, core learning ... was weak to begin with ...

1. which
2. whose
3. whom
4. who

Correct answer: whose

Solution

The sentence needs a possessive relative pronoun because the blank refers to something belonging to the children. 'Whose' correctly shows possession, while 'who', 'whom', and 'which' do not fit this structure.
