Question

Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
Tom's mother sent ____ a letter.

• A. him
• B. for him
• C. to him
• D. by him

Answer 1

The correct option is A him

Let’s examine the sentence: “Tom's mother sent ____ a letter.” The sentence has verb ‘sent’ that requires an object in the form of objective pronoun. The personal pronouns ‘me, you, us, him, her, it, and them’ are called objective pronouns because they act as the objects of verbs and prepositions. S, Option A is the correct answer. All the other options would make the sentence meaningless and so, cannot be used.
