Answer: The sentence is correct as it is ("None of us wanted him and her to stop singing").

Explanation: The sentence provided should not be modified. It is correct as it is presented because the pronoun is functioning as a grammatical object of the verb "wanted". In that way, an object pronoun must be used to fulfill that function. Some object pronouns are "her", "him", "me" and "you". For that reason, the correct pronoun usage is "him" and "her". The other two options combine an object pronoun with a subject pronoun, which is used as the subject of a verb; therefore, it cannot function as an object.

Answer:

The answer is indeed correct as is.

Explanation:

There is no reason to change the pronoun usage in the sentence "None of us wanted him and her to stop singing" for one of the options provided.

The pronouns we are supposed to correct do not function as subjects in this sentence, but as objects of the verb "wanted". Thus, changing any of them by using a subject pronoun - he or she - would make the sentence incorrect. Note that the options even mix both types of pronouns, subject and object - "he and her" and "him and she" -, which is an impossible usage, since both pronouns complete the same verb in the sentence.

The sentence is correct as is, using the object pronouns "him and her".
