Reyna and her older sister Hylla were born to the war goddess Bellona and Julian Ramírez-Arellano in San Juan, Puerto Rico.Millenia before Reyna and Hylla were born, Bellona declared that the Ramírez-Arellano family would play pivotal roles in many battles. Hylla described their father, saying that he used to be gentle before Reyna was born. When he came back from the war in Iraq, where he was a soldier, he was never the same. He never got over the thinking about the war, and as Reyna grew up, he changed. He saw enemies everywhere and made their house a fortress. When he had become so paranoid that he had been reduced to a ghost, or a mania, he tossed a chair at Hylla. Reyna was so angry that she attacked him with an Imperial Gold saber, and not knowing it was Imperial Gold, she vaporized him.

Identify the sentence parts by placing the red abbreviations in their correct locations. Put parentheses around the prepositiona
GalinKa [24]

Let's break this sentence down:

Sandy's throw to first base was short.

  • Prepositional phrases: There is one prepositional phrase: <em>to first base </em>since there is a preposition (to) and an object (first base) altogether.
  • The subject is <em>Sandy's throw</em>.
  • The verb within the sentence is <em>was</em>.
  • There is one complement in the sentence which is subject compliment: <em>short. </em>Remember that subject complements give us more information about the subject and they usually occur after linking verbs (seem, be, become) and, in this sentence, the subject complement is preceded by the verb <em>was.</em>
