The correct answer is option C and this is because the word "We" is the subject of the sentence and stays above and connects the verb and object of the sentence "take the ferry".

How to explain

The correct diagram of the sentence "We decided to take the ferry to the island" is as follows:

S

|

VP

|

V PP

|

| \

decided to take PP

| \

| \

ferry to the island

|

|

O

Key:

S: Sentence

VP: Verb Phrase

V: Verb

PP: Prepositional Phrase

O: Object

The sentence is in the declarative mood and has the following structure:

Subject: We

Verb: decided

Object: None

The prepositional phrase "to the island" modifies the verb "take" and indicates the destination of the ferry ride.
