Teacher: In each example you will read a short sentence (or two). Then, a pronoun in the text is mentioned. Your task is to choose a referent which the mentioned pronoun refers to. You will be given two options in each case and one choice should seem much more likely to you than the other.
Teacher: Now, understand the problem? If you are still confused, see the following example:
sentence: i couldn't put the saucepan on the rack because it was too tall .pronoun: it. A) the saucepan B) the rack
Solution: the saucepan
Reason: If the saucepan couldn't be put on the rack, it was probably bigger in size than the rack, so the pronoun "tall" refers to the saucepan.

Now, solve this instance: sentence: in the middle of the outdoor gig , the hail started falling , and it continued until 10 .pronoun: it. A) the gig B) the hail
Student:
the hail
