Question text

In the psychological research of language, it has been found that many single words are redundant for the meaning of the whole sentence. In this task, the significance of pronouns for the comprehension of a sentence is examined. English sentences from various situations are presented. In each sentence, one pronoun is replaced with a blank. For each sentence, there are three alternatives, all of which fit the sentence grammatically. The task is to choose from the alternatives the pronoun that you think would most probably fit the context. There are no right or wrong answers, simply choose the pronoun that makes the most sense to you. If you are uncertain of the answer, you can guess. Which of the alternatives best fits the sentence?

As a result of _______ suggestions, a minor revision in the policy has occurred.
