1. Right answer:
d) las
A direct object pronoun replaces a direct object, that is a noun that directly receives the action of a verb in a sentence. Moreover, direct object pronouns in Spanish agree in number and gender with the nouns they replace. The FIrst Table below shows the different forms of direct objects in Spanish. So las fresas is the direct object. Hence we replace this by the direct object pronoun for the third person plural (feminine form), which is las. Therefore:
Sara las come
2. Right answer:
a) los
Here los libros is the direct object. Hence we replace this by the direct object pronoun for the third person plural (masculine form), which is los. We choose the masculine plural form because the noun libros also matches this form. Hence we can replace los libros by losTherefore:
Mis amigos los buscan
3. Right answer:
a) les
Here we use the indirect object pronoun for the third person plural, which is les. An Indirect Object Pronoun is a person that receives the action of a verb indirectly. Its purpose is to tell you to whom or for whom something is done. We can see the different forms of indirect objects in Spanish in the Second Table below. So the action here was performed for las muchachas, hence we can replace this by les. Finally:
Los muchachos les dan chocolate.
4. Right answer:
a) le
This sentence also stands for an indirect object pronoun. Here the action was performed for her. Hence we can replace ella by the indirect object pronoun for the third person singular, which is le. Accordingly, the teacher gives the papers to her:
La maestra le da los papeles.
