The answer is the following:  

Gerund Phrase: "driving carefully"

Noun Use: Direct Object.

A gerund phrase consists of a gerund, which is an -ing word, as well as other modifiers and/or other objects. They work as nouns, so they can be subjects, subject complements or objects in sentences.

In the example sentence, "She" is the subject, "was able to get past" is the verb, and "the muddy road" is a predicate nominative.

Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer :

D. The sentence which best states the controlling idea of this passage is "The wire taps were never a secret, but they helped the United States gain military intelligence. "

1. "On balance, however, some valuable information was gathered from the tapped conversations. The U.S. learned, for example, a great deal about the Soviet and Eastern European order of battle, or its military organization. Others feel that the intelligence was valuable to check against similar information obtained from other sources."

2."The evidence suggests that the CIA gained two invaluable and untainted kinds of knowledge from the taps. The agency learned a basic blueprint of the Soviet and East German security systems, and it never picked up a glimmer of warning that Moscow intended to go to war.”
