Answer 1

11. The correct answer is B. indirect object.
When there are two objects in a sentence, a direct one and an indirect one, the first one is going to be indirect, and it will be followed by the direct object. In this sentence, the direct object is 'to stay silent while in court,' which means that the indirect object is 'the client.'

12. The correct answer is D. predicate adjective.
Predicate adjective is the first adjective found after a linking verb (the one which connects two parts of a sentence. In this case, the linking verb is 'was,' which means that the first adjective following it is 'creative,' which makes it a predicate adjective.

13. The correct answer is B. indirect object.
The explanation is the same as for sentence number 11. You can easily spot a direct object - just ask the question What?/Whom? So here, what did the last testimony give the judge? - A reason to doubt. That is the direct object, which means that the object in front of it, the judge, is indirect.

14. The correct answer is D. compound predicate nominative.
A predicate nominative is the first noun following a linking verb, which in this case is 'represented.' Those nouns in this sentence are advancement and challenge - and even though you may be led to believe these are direct objects, they are not because they are not preceded by a transitive verb, but rather a linking verb.
