OpenStudy (alivejeremy):
An indirect object is really a prepositional phrase in which the preposition to or for is not stated but understood. It tells to whom or for whom something is done. The indirect object always comes between the verb and the direct object.
OpenStudy (13ziar):
is it C
RhondaSommer (rhondasommer):
you would be correct though
because Cheryl is the subject; and she is debating whether to show her pictures of the trip, the pictures of the trip is the direct object.
making patricia the indirect object :)
