        Questão
	
	
	Mark the only sentence which has a transitive verb with two objects:
		
	
	Christiane chose a terrific gift!
	
	Dalila studied the lessons very carefully.
	
	Julia read all the answers.
	 
	Renata wrote wonderful messages to her students.
	
	Carlos sent  a perfect e-mail!
	Respondido em 13/11/2020 03:24:34
	
Explicação:
 According to certain linguistics considerations, these objects may be called direct and indirect, or primary and secondary. English has a number of generally ditransitive verbs, such as give and grant, and many transitive verbs that can take an additional argument (commonly a beneficiary or target of the action), such as pass, read, bake, etc.:
He gave Mary ten dollars.
He passed Paul the ball.
Jean read him the books.
She is baking him a cake.
 
English grammar allows for these sentences to be written alternately with a preposition (to or for):
He gave ten dollars to Mary.
He passed the ball to Paul.
Jean read the books to/for him.
She is baking a cake for him., etc.
