Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. whose.

  • "Whose" is a possessive pronoun like "his", and "our".
  • We use "whose" to find out which person something belongs to.
  • Hence, the blank must be filled in with "whose".
  • The complete sentence will be: The man whose book you are reading is my father.
