Explanation:

1. In Spanish, "la comida" is the direct - object and "a nosotros" is the indirect - object. We use "nos" for "a nosotros" and "la" for "la comida". The rewritten sentence is "Mi hermana nos la prepara."
2. "las flores" is the direct - object and "a Julieta" is the indirect - object. We use "le" for "a Julieta" and "las" for "las flores". The rewritten sentence is "Tú se las das."
3. "un regalo" is the direct - object and "a Marta" is the indirect - object. We use "le" for "a Marta" and "lo" for "un regalo". The rewritten sentence is "Nosotros le lo vamos a comprar en el centro comercial."
4. "el paquete" is the direct - object and "a su amigo" is the indirect - object. We use "le" for "a su amigo" and "lo" for "el paquete". The rewritten sentence is "Ernesto se lo manda."
5. "un consejo" is the direct - object and "a los chicos" is the indirect - object. We use "les" for "a los chicos" and "lo" for "un consejo". The rewritten sentence is "Yo se lo doy."
6. "una camiseta nueva" is the direct - object and "a ti" is the indirect - object. We use "te" for "a ti" and "la" for "una camiseta nueva". The rewritten sentence is "Yo te la compro."
7. "historias" is the direct - object and "a los niños" is the indirect - object. We use "les" for "a los niños" and "las" for "historias". The rewritten sentence is "Mi abuela se las cuenta."
8. "la respuesta correcta" is the direct - object and "a la profesora" is the indirect - object. We use "le" for "a la profesora" and "la" for "la respuesta correcta". The rewritten sentence is "Luis y yo se la damos."
