Problem 2 - Entrance Test

Which revision fixes the pronoun ambiguity in this sentence? 'When she returned from Paris, everyone gave her a gift.'

Correct: B

The correct answer eliminates ambiguity by specifying 'Maria' as the referent of 'her.' Using 'they' or changing 'her' to the object position doesn't resolve the ambiguity between 'she' and 'everyone.'
