The correct answer is A. The massive Labrador Retriever

Explanation:

In grammar, a noun phrase refers to a set of words that can be a subject or object in a sentence. This type of phrases can be identified because they always include a noun  (word that names an object, animal, person or entity) or a pronoun (words such as she, he, it, etc that  replaces a noun) along with other words such as adjectives that describe or modify the main noun or pronoun. Considering this, the one from the options that is a noun phrase is "the massive Labrador Retriever" because this phrase includes one main noun "Labrador Retriever" along with an adjective or modifier to describe "massive" which are two of the main features of noun phrases, also this phrase can be a subject or object. On the other hand, other options do not include a noun and can not act as a subject or object in a sentence and therefore cannot be noun phrases.

The answer is A. the massive Labrador Retriever

A noun phrase or nominal phrase (abbreviated NP) is a phrase which has a noun (or indefinite pronoun) as its head word, or which performs the same grammatical function as such a phrase. Noun phrases are very common cross-linguistically, and they may be the most frequently occurring phrase type.

Orlov [11]

Answer:

These preliminaries settled, he did not care to put off any longer the execution of his design, urged on to it by the thought of all the world was losing by his delay, seeing what wrongs he intended to right, grievances to redress, injustices to repair, abuses to remove, and duties to discharge. So, without giving notice of his intention to anyone, and without anybody seeing him, one morning before the dawning of the day (which was one of the hottest of the month of July) he donned his suit of armour, mounted Rocinante with his patched-up helmet on, braced his buckler, took his lance, and by the back door of the yard sallied forth upon the plain in the highest contentment and satisfaction at seeing with what ease he had made a beginning with his grand purpose. But scarcely did he find himself upon the open plain, when a terrible thought struck him, one all but enough to make him abandon the enterprise at the very outset. It occurred to him that he had not been dubbed a knight, and that according to the law of chivalry he neither could nor ought to bear arms against any knight; and that even if he had been, still he ought, as a novice knight, to wear white armour, without a device upon the shield until by his prowess he had earned one. These reflections made him waver in his purpose, but his craze being stronger than any reasoning, he made up his mind to have himself dubbed a knight by the first one he came across, following the example of others in the same case, as he had read in the books that brought him to this pass. As for white armour, he resolved, on the first opportunity, to scour his until it was whiter than an ermine; and so comforting himself he pursued his way, taking that which his horse chose, for in this he believed lay the essence of adventures.
