The correct answer is D) the subject complement of this sentence is human. A subject complement is a word (usually a noun) which follows a linking verb (which connects two parts of a sentence - in this sentence, the linking verb is was), and refers to the subject of the sentence. Here, the word human refers to the subject Neil Armstrong, he is that human.
