The options? I just learned about direct characterization so I'm able to help
Answer:
The simple subject is the tropical wave.
Explanation:
A simple subject is something that is performing an action. It can be a person, place, or even a thing. In this sentence, the thing is the tropical wave. The tropical wave is performing an action. It is entering the Gulf of Mexico, a place. The answer is not the Gulf of Mexico because the gulf is not performing any action.
You've got question 3 right, but question 4 is C. The rest of them does not make sense.
I believe it is option A. He loved a beautiful woman who has died.
