Question

They’re waiting at the stadium. 

  1. They were 
  2. They are 
  3. None of the above 

hintHint:

You can remember that apostrophes indicate the possessive only when used of 's, such as 'the writer's thoughts'. Otherwise, it's generally a contraction of two words.

The correct answer is: They are 


    'They're waiting at the stadium', They're is a contraction of words they and are. They're has an apostrophe, which means it's the product of two words: they are. If you can substitute they are into your sentence and retain the meaning, then they're is the correct to use.
