Answer 1

Answer and Explanation:

A complete subject is the simple subject or the main word plus the other words that describe it (modifiers).

A complete predicate is the verb (the main word) and its modifiers).

The subject does the action, and the predicate gives information about the subject.

6. Subject: The girls next door (main word: girls ) Predicate: came to see me. (main word: came )

7. Subject: The aerobics class after work (main word: class ) Predicate: was noisy. (main word: was )

8. Subject: The factory down the street (main word: factory ) Predicate: burned to the ground last night. (main word: burned )

9. Subject: The heavy snow (main word: snow ) Predicate: came unexpectedly yesterday. (main word: came )

10. Subject: The strong winds (mains word: winds ) Predicate: built high drifts. (main word: built )

Answer 2

A complete sentence needs to have a subject and a predicate. A complete subject is the person or object that performs the action with all the description that characterizes it. The complete predicate includes the action or verb, and the rest of the complementary information. In the following sentences, the information in bold corresponds to the complete subject, and the information in italics corresponds to the complete predicate:

6. The girls next door came to see me.

7. The aerobics class after work was noisy.

8. The factory down the street burned to the ground last night.

9. The heavy snow came unexpectedly yesterday.

10. The strong winds built high drifts.
