alexandr402 [8]

A)True.
In order to maintain relationships (both social and business relationships) a level of mutual kindness to each other is vital. Without kindness, a connection is impossible to be made. Additionally, if everyone was unkind, the world would be a much colder place than it is currently. Without kindness, compassion doesn't exist, which may result in social incompetence and increased wars and fighting.

5. The night before the race, many runners eat pasta dinners.

Explanation:

I have underlined the simple subjects and bolded the simple predicates within the given sentences.

A simple subject is the most important word within the complete subject. It's a noun or a pronoun. For example, the complete subject in the 2nd sentence is Many runners, but the most important word within it is runners, which makes it the simple subject.

A simple predicate is the main part, a verb, of the complete predicate. A complete predicate includes all the descriptors besides the verb (e.g. The race begins in a suburb of Boston), but the simple predicate is just the verb (begins).
