Answer:
D. Linking verb
Explanation:
Verbs are words that express actions, occurrences, and states of being.
Transitive verbs are verbs that require an object (the recipient of the action expressed by the verb). <em>To become </em>is not a transitive verb as it can't have an object. This is why it is an intransitive verb used as a linking verb. This is its main purpose, which is why option D is the one that best describes it.
Linking verbs are verbs that provide additional information about the subject by connecting it to a predicate adjective or predicate noun. Just like the verbs <em>to be </em>and <em>to seem, to become </em>is a true linking verb. In the given case, <em>Frank </em>is the subject of the second independent clause, and the words that describe him are <em>class president. </em>These words are a predicate noun (predicate nominative). <em>Became </em>connects these parts of the clause, which is why it's a linking verb.
