From the words or group of words lettered A to D, choose the word or group of words that best completes each of the following sentences:

The ...............toys have all been stolen.

Answer Details

The correct option is "children's". Explanation: The sentence refers to toys that belong to children, so it requires the possessive form of the word "children". The apostrophe ('s) indicates that the toys belong to one or more children. Therefore, the correct sentence is "The children's toys have all been stolen." Option A, "children", is a plural noun that refers to one or more young human beings. However, it is not possessive, so it is not the correct option. Option B, "childrens", is an incorrect spelling of the word "children" and does not exist in standard English. Option C, "childrens'", includes an unnecessary "s" after "children", which is already plural, so it is not the correct option.
