<span>The sentence in this excerpt from Leo Tolstoy’s The Death of Ivan Ilyich that suggests that Ivan Ilyich and his wife couldn’t even agree on how to raise their children is the penultimate one - </span><span>Ivan Ilyich wanted to put him in the School of Law, but to spite him Praskovya Fedorovna entered him at the High School.
It shows that they disagreed on where their children should be educated.

Did you get the answers??
As a writer and reader I disagree with this. Perhaps if you are writing for a scientific journal or business report, long blocks of text can seem like you have a lot of info. Generally speaking, especially in fiction and non fiction i think unbroken pages of text will best case scenario bore a reader, worst case scenraio burden and overwhelm them with a lot of info so the feel daunted about continuing.
Even though you didn't underline anything, there is only one pronoun in this sentence - the word them.
The case of this pronoun is objective - it functions as an object in the sentence. It is really easy to determine this - all you have to do is ask the questions <em>whom </em>or <em>what. Whom did the designer dress in black and teal costumes? </em>And the answer is - <em>Them. </em>
This way you know that the pronoun is also the object; to be more specific, it is a direct object.
Therefore, the correct answers are case: objective; function: direct object.
What bolded word (put "" around the word)
