My biggest fear is balloons.
I have a fear of balloons but not just looking at them, No No No. When they pop, fly away, or if I touch them that is what triggers my fear. At birthday parties I stay away from them and never have any at my own.
The Shakespeare Stealer is a 1998 historical fiction novel by Gary Blackwood. Taking place in the Elizabethan-era England, it recounts the story of Widge, an orphan whose master sends him to steal Hamlet from The Lord Chamberlain's Men. If we skip the opening setting of Mistress MacGregor's orphanage, then the three settings of The Shakespeare Stealer are the rectory in "the nearby hamlet of Berwick"; the home of Mrs. and Dr. Timothy Bright, a medical practitioner who had studied at Cambridge and who was also the rector of Berwick; Simon Bass's home in Leicester; and the city on the Thames, London City, home of the Globe Theatre.

The predicate is the very and everything that follows after it, which could include adverbs, prepositional phrases, and other parts of speech. For example, "The dog ran across the street to the neighbor's house". Find the verb (the action or in your case, a linking verb such as is, are, was, wear, am). In my example, the verb is 'ran'. So the predicate is:
-ran across the street to the neighbor's house
For your sentence, the predicate is -was very strong.
Thomas Hobbes came up with the idea of the social contract in 1657. His ideas were influenced by the English Civil War. He argued the importance of government, saying that society would be in ruins without it. Because of his pessimistic view of people, believing we are all born naturally evil and corrupt, he believed that absolute rule was the only answer. He wanted to form a social contract with the government primarily because he wanted to ensure self-interest. John Locke built off of Hobbes ideas but changed them to fit his own ideals. He wanted the power of government to come from the people's consent, keeping the rulers accountable to their people, yet in power.
Hope that helps!
