Question 1 select the correct direct object pronoun for the word in parentheses that best completes this sentence: maría y yo traemos. (los tenedores) question 1 options: 1) las 2) lo 3) nos 4) los

The correct answer is Los.

Maria an I bring them (referring to the forks)

Hope this helps!

The answer would be los.
 
This is because rather than putting "them" after the verb in English, like "Maria and I bring them." It would go before the verb, therefore making los = them. You would also choose los rather than las because "los tenedores" is a masculine word.

There are many examples of how latin influence has come to america and is here to stay. one for example is the banana. a fruit that was only grown in south america for years but then came to america in the early 1900s. it was propagandized as an exotic fruit from latin america during the first world war and took america by storm. now bananas are wildly used in the united states as one of the most popular fruits. another example is clothing. now more than ever ponchos, tribal prints from latin american latinos (such as mexico, peru, honduras, colombia, etc) are popularizing the colorful prints the latin american indigenous people would use, on back packs, sweaters, jewelry, blankets, etc in the "hipster movement." these things were originally popularized in the 90s after a mass movement of immigration after the regan administrations amnesty. but this trend continues in america today.

For this question, it will be important to use the words "mejor" (better), "lo mejor" (the best), and "lo peor" (the worst). while "mejor" is comparative (you are comparing one thing to something else), "lo mejor" and "lo peor" are superlative (there is nothing else better or worse than what these words are describing - there is no comparison).  you could say something like: la música rap es mejor que la música clásica - que es lo peor - pero la música rock es lo mejor de todas las formas de la música (rap music is better than classical music - which is the worst - but rock music is the best out of all the forms of music).
