Answer:
B) Elizabeth ruined Abigail's reputation by accusing her of adultery.
C) Parris believed his daughter to be possessed by the devil.
D) Abigail gained power by accusing others of witchcraft.
Explanation:
For many people, the Salem Witch trials provided an opportunity to make a wide range of allegations of witchcraft against anybody suspected of witchcraft in the community. Consequently, those in the poorer classes of society were aware of having control over others by accusing someone of witchcraft for whatever excuse they could think of. The Crucible's setting reflects the sense of confidence that individuals feel throughout the witch trials. The play also explores the societal problem of people abusing their positions of authority, both for themselves and for others around them.
Out of all the pronouns, "whom" makes the most sense grammatically. This allows us to narrow it down to A or D.
In order for it to be the object of a preposition, there would have to be a preposition in front of it. "For," however is <em>not</em> a preposition. In fact, there isn't a preposition in the whole question.
This leaves us with option D, which is the correct answer.
You can better tell it's a direct object if you flip the sentence around a bit.
Your sister is waiting <em>for whom</em>?
"Whom" is essentially receiving the action. "Whom" is what your sister is waiting for.
Answer: D. whom; direct object.

Today, there are many many laws protecting children from such things and medicine has evolved so most people in wealthy countries could live up to 70 years old if they take care of themselves.
