I'm not sure what you're supposed to do as far as the story... I hope this is enough setting.
It was the first day of kindergarten. Posters of cute animals and giant, colorful letters of the alphabet decorated the walls. As the parents brought in their children, the laughter of the children almost drowned out quiet sniffles of the parents. A small boy let go of his mom’s hand, and his brand new shoes squeaked across the floor as he found the desk with his name carefully printed on a tag. The kindly teacher smiled and waited for last hugs and goodbyes before she began her first lesson.
Answer:
c. Descriptive grammar seeks to describe how language is actually used in the real world.

The answer to this question is D. Objective
Explanation.
All pronouns despite their type represent a noun or are related to a noun. In the case of object pronouns, these include words such as me, his, her that are used as an object in the sentence. This means these pronouns describe the entity affected by the verb.
This occurs with the word "me" in "Give me thy hand" because the word "me" replaces the noun Romeo who is the beneficiary or the indirect object. Thus, the pronoun is objective.
