Question and options
Direction: Fill in the blanks with suitable word(s).
The way you dress is __________ annoys me most.
- which
- what
- when
- how
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: B - what
The blank must begin a clause that completes “is” and also acts as the subject of “annoys”, so it needs a word meaning “the thing that”: “The way you dress is what annoys me most.” “Which” needs a noun before it to refer to, and “when” and “how” cannot be the subject of “annoys”.
