A grammar question about those and these
Hi all!
I've recently saw a question as below in my textbook.
<We should respect our parents and teachers, for _____ give us life and love, and _____ educate and inspire us.>
(A)the one ... the other(B)those ... these(C) that ... this(D) the ones...the others
The answer given in the textbook is B.
Isn't the question supposed to be <We should respect our parents and teachers, for _____ giving us life and love, and _____ educating and inspiring us.>
Also, I am uncertain if the answer given is right or wrong.
Thanks for all your kindly reply in advance!
