do u know what a compoud direct is ? and if not then thats why u cant get this
A "direct object" is part of a sentence that is acted upon by an action word or verb. For example, in the sentence "I ate my lunch", the direct object would be "my lunch" or "lunch" because that is acted on by the verb "ate". A compound direct object is the same thing, with more than one noun in the direct object, for example "I ate my lunch and dessert" Which of the answer choices contain a phrase that describes more than one thing being acted on by the verb in the sentence? That will be your answer.
