    • Direct object

    • Predicate adjective

    Correct Answer
    A. Predicate nominative
    Explanation
    The underlined word "contender" is a predicate nominative. In this sentence, "I" is the subject and "could have been" is the verb phrase. The predicate nominative renames or identifies the subject, in this case, "I." It is used to complete the meaning of the verb phrase and functions as a noun.

    The most important part of a sentence is the _____?

    • Subject

    • Verb

    • Direct object

    • Indirect object

    Correct Answer
    A. Verb
    Explanation
    The most important part of a sentence is the verb. The verb is the action or state of being in a sentence and it is essential for conveying meaning and expressing the relationship between the subject and the rest of the sentence. Without a verb, a sentence would lack a main action or assertion, making it incomplete or unclear. Therefore, the verb plays a crucial role in constructing a grammatically correct and meaningful sentence.
