Question

Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.

We are late. The teacher will get angry with ______.

• A. we
• B. they
• C. us
• D. I

Answer 1

The correct option is C us

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 anger is shown towards the speaker. The object pronoun for first person plural is "us". Hence, Option C is correct. The rest of the options do not adhere to this rule, hence incorrect.
