Peter Whitehead · Answer 1

D: The Student erased her whole paper and made a large whole.

Explanation:

Whole means for example: I hate the whole cake.

Whole doesn't mean what she means it to mean. She meant to say on the last use of the word, whole, she meant to say hole.

Hole meaning for example: I dug up a hole. There is a hole is the ground.
