Answer 1

Have a guess? ^-^

Answer 2

>~< A? I don't really get this problem.

Answer 3

Well, let's check. Let's start backwards this time. For D, a direct object is a noun or pronoun that receives the action of a verb in a sentence. An example would be "Samantha played Monopoly" In this case, Samantha would be the subject, played would be the verb, and Monopoly would be the direct object. But, in this sentence, there is no subject so we can eliminate D.

Answer 4

Alright so crossing out D.

Answer 5

For C, It is incorrect because our gerund phrase, which is "cleaning", but cleaning is an action, and object of prepositions are nouns or pronouns depending on the type of sentence. So, we can eliminate that as well.

Answer 6

Sorry I'm taking a while. Haven't dealt with this type of stuff in ages >.<

Answer 7

It's no problem! Thanks so much for helping me!! ~~***

Answer 8

No problem! ^-^ Now, for B, it is incorrect because a predicate nominative is a word in the nominative case that completes a copulative verb. An example would be "Nicole is my dog", in that example the predicate nominative would be dog. But, "cleaning" is an action word, so this is incorrect. And finally, we are left with our answer as A, so you were correct ^-^

Answer 9

tHAT TOOK an unexpected turn I WAs correct the whole time. :O

Answer 10

It is A because "cleaning" is the action that is describing the subject which is "the park" What is he cleaning? the park! ^-^

Answer 11

Yes, it would have been no fun at all just saying "correct!" >:3
