• B. We kept ourselves away from the class
• C. We kept ourself away from the class
• D. We kept to ourself away from the class

Answer 1

Answer:

B. We kept ourselves away from the class

• The verb “kept” here needs a reflexive pronoun to show that the subject acted on itself.

• Since the subject is “we”, the correct reflexive pronoun is “ourselves.”
