Q xP
Very annoying and often confusing.
Let's go through each question and determine the correct answer.
1. "The first person in the door was she."
The word "she" is functioning as the subject of the sentence. Therefore, the correct answer is C. subject.
2. "The reporter shook hands with the winner and then gave the trophy to her."
In this sentence, "her" is the recipient of the action, so it is functioning as the indirect object. Therefore, the correct answer is C. Object of a preposition.
3. "The most willing helpers are ____."
The proper pronoun to fill this blank would be a subject pronoun. "They" is the correct pronoun in this context, so the correct answer is C. they.
4. "Yes,____skateboards are in the hall."
The blank is asking for a word that means "the skateboards belong to them." The correct pronoun to use here is "their." Therefore, the correct answer is A. their.
Based on your answers, your responses are:
1. D. direct object (Incorrect. The correct answer is C. subject.)
2. B. subject (Incorrect. The correct answer is C. Object of a preposition.)
3. B. them (Incorrect. The correct answer is C. they.)
4. D. their (Correct!)
Just to recap, the correct answers are:
1. C. subject
2. C. Object of a preposition
3. C. they
4. A. their
