Explanation:
We need to choose the correct
object pronoun for each sentence. Object pronouns are used when the pronoun is the *receiver* of the action (i.e., it comes after a verb or preposition like *to*, *with*, *for*, etc.).
Let’s go one by one:
1.
Can you talk to ________ later this session?
- “Talk to” is a verb + preposition. The blank needs an object pronoun.
- Options:
- (a) *me* → correct object pronoun (I → me)
- (b) *theirs* → possessive pronoun (not used as object)
- (c) *he* → subject pronoun (used for subject, not object)
✔ Answer:
me
2.
Lisa knows ________?
- “Knows” is a verb; the blank is the object of the verb.
- Options:
- (a) *his* → possessive (e.g., his book), not object
- (b) *you* → object pronoun (also subject, but works as object here)
- (c) *he* → subject only
✔ “Lisa knows you” is correct. So answer:
you
3.
I gave the book to ________.
- “To” is a preposition → needs object pronoun.
- Options:
- (a) *him* → correct (he → him)
- (b) *its* → possessive or object for things, but “book” is not being given *to* “its” — nonsense
- (c) *she* → subject form; object is *her*
✔ Answer:
him
4.
I met with ________ yesterday.
- “Met with” → preposition *with* → needs object pronoun.
- Options:
- (a) *my* → possessive (e.g., my friend) — not object
- (b) *her* → correct object form of *she*
- (c) *me* → would mean “I met with me” — illogical
✔ Answer:
her
5.
The teacher invited ________ for this class session.
- “Invited” is a verb → blank is direct object.
- Options:
- (a) *I* → subject only
- (b) *it* → could be used for a thing, but context suggests people
- (c) *us* → object form of *we*; “The teacher invited us” makes sense (class session = group)
✔ Answer:
us
Final Answer:
1. (a) me
2. (b) you
3. (a) him
4. (b) her
5. (c) us
