Direction : Complete the following sentence using appropriate form of the pronoun.
We are eagerly expecting for __________.
Answer: B
The correct pronoun is them.
The blank follows the preposition 'for', and a pronoun that is the object of a preposition must be in the objective case: them, not they. ('Expect' normally takes no 'for' in standard English, 'We are eagerly expecting them', but with the sentence as printed, the object form is required either way.)
'They' is the subjective case and cannot follow a preposition. 'These' and 'that' are demonstratives, and 'that' would also be singular where the sentence implies people being expected.
