    • D.

      I

    Correct Answer
    C. Me
    Explanation
    We need an object pronoun, and there is no noun or verb before the comma. “Me” is the correct answer here, as it is the only way to correctly refer to oneself in this context.

    • D.

      Your

    Correct Answer
    D. Your

    We need a possessive adjective before the noun 'house'. Choices A, B and C are wrong because the second sentence clearly illustrates the speaker is asking to watch the match at the other person’s house.

      He/you

    Correct Answer
    C. You/him
    Explanation
    We need a subject pronoun and then an object pronoun. 'Ray' is a male name. The correct answer is “you” to match the “you” in the first sentence, and the only possible match is “him” because Ray is singular. 

    Rate this question:

  • 10.

    • D.

      Him

      It

    • D.

      Their

    • D.

      They're

    Correct Answer
    D. They're
