First- and second-person pronouns

In this exercise you will first choose the best translation and the case of one or more pronouns in a sentence; then you will translate the sentence.

You will receive a score for your translation, but note that computers are not good at evaluating translations, so you should not take the score too seriously. Instead, compare your translation with ours to get a sense of how well you have understood the passge.
