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>?

<h3>Analyzing the passage from "The Great Gatsby"</h3>
We can develop the answer and analyze the passage as follows:
- Fitzgerald uses color to represent different feelings. In the passage, he uses white to convey a sense of purity and innocence, as if the narrator is entering heaven.
- He uses simile in "like pale flags" and metaphor in "the frosted-cake of the ceiling." "The whip and snap of the curtains" is an onomatopoeia, representing sound. Such figures of speech give the passage a light and vivacious mood.
- One image that is quite appealing is that of the girls being balloons, floating around the house and then slowly coming back to the floor. This image conveys a sense of joy and wonder, as if there is something magical about those girls.
- A sound that would fit the situation is "whoosh" because of the wind coming in through the windows and moving everything around the room.
