OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok thank you

OpenStudy (markchernioglo):

np

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it would be B. "him" is the object of a preposition, because prepositions are directional (from, to, over, under, later, before, around, etc) "him" is an object. (I would explain how I know about object vs subject pronouns, and the rules, but at the moment I cant remember... subject pronouns are things like I, you, we, etc. object pronouns are things like me, him, her, they, etc. Hope I could be helpful
