Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Correct sentence: My grandfather left most of his money to an NGO; the rest went directly to my daughter and me.

Key point: Use an object pronoun after a preposition.

  • The pronoun is the object of the preposition "to," so use the object form "me."

  • Test by removing the other noun: "He left it to me" is correct, whereas "He left it to I" is incorrect.

  • "myself" is reflexive and is used when the subject and object are the same person (e.g., "I introduced myself"). That is not the case here.

  • Use "I" only as a subject (e.g., "My daughter and I went to the store").
