Question My cat has caught three ______ (a mouse) today.
A mices
B mouses
C mice
D mouse
Answer c
Remark For the test sentence ‘My cat has caught three ______ (a mouse) today.’ we need to transform the singular form of the noun ‘mouse’ into the plural form. The noun 'mouse' that means ‘a small mammal with short fur, a pointed face, and a long, thin tail’ usually has the irregular plural form: MOUSE → MICE.But be attentive: if the meaning of the word ‘mouse’ is ‘a small mobile manual device that controls movement of the cursor and selection of functions on a computer display’, the plural form can also be ‘mouses’.
