Question

Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.

The rope was not very strong, so we did not use ________ .

• A. them
• B. its
• C. they
• D. it

Answer 1

The correct option is A them

If the pronoun is receiving the action, it is called a direct object. Object pronouns are always used when the antecedent is a direct object. Here, the rope is not being used. The object pronoun for third person plural is "them". Hence, Option A is correct. The rest of the options do not adhere to this rule, hence incorrect.
