OpenStudy (texaschic101):

correct......if it helps, you can break the sentence down and take out all adj, adv, and prep phrases. We picked the ripe peaches from the tree.....take out all adj and prep phrases.. We picked the peaches. That is basically your entire sentence minus all the extra info. Now it is easy to find the DO.
