ValentinkaMS [17]
It may be obvious, but making bad choices can get you stuck in some bad situations. Sometimes when people do something, even if it's not bad, they dont consider what the consequences of thier actions may be.

Which pronoun best completes the sentence? . . How is the pronoun used? . . . The instructor gave Dylan and __________ some good
Anastasy [175]
The correct answer as to which pronoun best completes the sentence and how the pronoun is used is D. me; indirect object.
In a sentence where there are two objects, where one is direct, and the other one indirect, the rule is that the first object that will be written in the sentence is the indirect, and it will be followed by a direct object. Since the direct object here is <em>some good pointers, </em>it means that the indirect one is <em>me.
</em><em /><em />Also, you cannot choose the pronoun <em>I </em>as the correct answer, as that is the pronoun used as a subject, not an object.
