Answer:

The noun that is the direct object in the sentence is lightbulb.

Explanation:

The direct object in a sentence is the thing or person being acted upon, the receiver of the action described by the verb. It usually answers the questions "Who?" or "What?". In the particular sentence we are analyzing here, we also have an indirect object. It answers questions such as "To whom?" or "For what?". Let's study the sentence:

-  Dad bought Terri a special lightbulb for her bedroom lamp.

--> Dad bought what? A special lightbulb. Therefore, "a special lightbulb" is the complete direct object of the sentence. Since the question asks us to find the noun in the direct object, we should answer "lightbulb".

Note: Dad bought a lightbulb to whom? Terri. Terri is the indirect object.

In at least 150 words, identify and describe the setting, and the way the author uses imagery to describe it for Part 1 of Necta
Delicious77 [7]

In the novel “<em>Nectar in a Sieve</em>” by Kamala Markandaya (1954), one of the main themes is the contrast between the tradition (Part 1) and the modern (Part 2), or the rural life and the city life. While <u>Part 1</u> takes place in an unnamed village in rural India, <u>Part 2</u> takes place in an unnamed major city in urban India. The author used imagery throughout the novel in order to call the reader’s attention. This technique is used <u>to represent objects, actions, and ideas in a way that it appeals to the reader’s physical senses</u>. For example, Markandaya used onomatopoeia together with imagery in the following passage “<em>… a click-clank of stone on stone with intermittent dull explosions</em>”. Water is also an example of imagery in the novel, since the patterns of the rain portray Rukmani’s view of the world and the balance of certainty and uncertainty, the good times and the bad ones.  Moreover, water was also an important element in <u>Nathan’s death</u> and <u>for the women</u>.
