Pronoun "I"

Pronouns replace nouns to avoid repetition. "I" is used when referring to the speaker.

Pronoun "She"

In this case, "she" replaces Elena's name to avoid repeating it. This is the correct pronoun because 'Elena' is a singular female.

Pronoun "They"

The pronoun "they" refers to a group of people. It's used when speaking about a group of people, like a drama teacher giving out tickets to multiple people.

Pronoun "They" (again)

Like "she", the pronoun "they" can also refer to a group. It's important to use the right pronoun based on the noun it replaces.
