Asked by Michelle

Identify the subject and complete verb in each of the following sentences.


A pen and a pad of paper are in the top drawer of my desk.
Select one:
a. paper/drawer; are
b. pen; are
c. pen/pad; are
d. pen/paper; are

D
Answered by Ms. Sue
It's not D. Paper is in a prepositional phrase and thus cannot be a subject.
Answered by Michelle
So is it c because the pad is a subject as well right
Answered by Ms. Sue
Yes, c.
