The correct answer is ‘The sentence is built around the simple subject “dad” and simple predicate “gave.” It also contains both a direct object “lunches” and indirect object “us.”’. The phrase “unfazed by the morning frenzy before school” is an adjunct and does not give necessary information. ‘Dad’, ‘us’ and ‘our lunches’ are the three grammatical roles (subject, indirect object, direct object respectively) that are necessitated by the verb ‘gave’.
