    5. [They] became the first [GenderedWord] to co- host the network television coverage for a World Series.

    1. After [TheirThem] football career ended, [SubjectName] became Mr. Minnesota and Northern States Bodybuilding champion before [They] got discovered by [OtherPersonName] Sharkey and wrestled in [TheirThem] Promotion AWA.

    3. the frequency with which illegal immigrants are the victims of crime in the United States
