That's okay. Let's go through the mistakes of the answer choices. "The sixth-grade students liked volunteering their time to read to the elderly people in the hospital. It made them happy." This is technically right, but the second sentence can be confusing.

The best choice is B) it made the volunteers happy. The first sentence is correct, so A is wrong. The error in the second sentence is that we don't know who "them" refers to. It (reading to the elderly) made "them" happy, but who is them? The volunteers or the elderly people? B) clarifies this point by saying that it made the volunteers happy.
