Would you mind _____ reading aloud ?

AI

Bme

Cmy

Dmyself

Answer:

C. my

Read Explanation:

  • In this context, "reading aloud" is a gerund phrase (a verb ending in "-ing" acting as a noun).

  • When a pronoun comes immediately before a gerund, it is grammatically correct to use the possessive form of the pronoun (my, your, his, her, its, our, their).

  • While some people informally use "me" in this sentence ("Would you mind me reading aloud?"), the formal and grammatically standard answer is "my".
