Preview: Explanations

1."All"(a)

'All of the answers' + plural verb 'were'. 'Every' cannot be followed by 'of' directly — you'd need 'every one of'. 'Each of the answers' would need singular 'was'.

2."every"(b)

'Every few minutes' is a fixed time expression meaning 'repeatedly, at short intervals'. 'Each' and 'all' don't fit this pattern.

3."each"(c)

'Each' is used as a pronoun here (without a noun after it), meaning 'each child'. 'Every' is a determiner and always needs a noun after it — it cannot stand alone. 'All goes' is wrong (subject-verb agreement).

4."whole"(d)

'Her whole life' — 'whole' comes after possessive determiners (my, your, her). It means her entire life from start to finish.

5."everyone"(d)

'Not everyone likes...' — 'everyone' is a pronoun that works as the subject. 'Not every' would need a noun after it. 'All people' would need plural 'like'.
