No, this sentence is not a verb phrase, because the subject is not part of the verb phrase here.
Here's why. The subject is "I," the verb is "believed," and everything following the verb ("every word he said") forms the object of the verb. By definition, a verb phrase is one verb + its various objects or modifiers. Here, "every word he said" operates as one single object (it's not just one word, it's EVERY word, and it's not just every word, it's every word HE said). But the subject is separate from the verb phrase, so the entire sentence is not a verb phrase (it's a subject + a verb phrase).
Answer:
D). To, too.
Explanation:
Homophones are elaborated as the words having similar pronunciation but varied or distinct meanings. The homophones are employed to evoke humor through the confusion and also incorporated deliberately to offer witty comments.
In the given example, the homophones that would correspond to the meaning of the sentence would be 'to, two' as the 'to' exemplifying motion 'will drove me to the bookstore' while 'too' implies the 'additional action'. Thus, the final sentence reads as:
"Will drove me <u>to</u> the bookstore, and I <u>too</u> bought books."
Thus, <u>option D</u> is the correct answer.
