I apologize for the confusion. The word "report" in the sentence is actually a common noun.
The underlined word "report" in the sentence is a common noun.
To identify the choice that best describes the underlined word, we need to understand what type of noun "report" is in the given sentence.
A common noun is a general name for a person, place, thing, or idea. A proper noun is the specific name of a person, place, or thing. A compound noun is a combination of two or more words that create a new noun. A collective noun refers to a group or collection of people or things.
In this sentence, "report" is a common noun because it is a general name for a type of written document. It is not a proper noun because it does not refer to a specific named report, and it is not a compound noun because it is a single word. It is also not a collective noun because it does not refer to a group or collection of reports.
Therefore, the best choice that describes the underlined word is "common noun."
