"
The following excerpts from the passage reaffirm this controlling idea :
1. "On balance, however, some valuable information was gathered from the tapped conversations. The U.S. learned, for example, a great deal about the Soviet and Eastern European order of battle, or its military organization. Others feel that the intelligence was valuable to check against similar information obtained from other sources."
2."The evidence suggests that the CIA gained two invaluable and untainted kinds of knowledge from the taps. The agency learned a basic blueprint of the Soviet and East German security systems, and it never picked up a glimmer of warning that Moscow intended to go to war.”

In the given question, the third sentence involves the prepositional phrase 'for me and him' appropriately featuring identified compound pronoun as it involves more than one object('me and him') and identifies to whom the subject(gift) is being referred to. Thus, <u>option C</u> is the correct answer.
