Does the old lady object __________ my smoking cigarettes ?

  • A.on
  • B.to
  • C.of
  • D.for

Answer: B

The answer is to: Does the old lady object to my smoking cigarettes?

The verb object is always followed by to when it names the thing disliked: object to the plan, object to noise. Because to here is a preposition, not part of an infinitive, it is followed by a noun or a gerund, which is why the sentence says my smoking and not to smoke.

Object on, object of and object for are not used. The noun object can take of (the object of the exercise), but that is a different word and a different meaning.
