Answer:
Rodion is poverty stricken for the narrator tells us that he was in huge debt to his landlady, dressed shabbily and that he was 'crushed by poverty'.
He did not have a care about his looks for his heart was full of hatred and spiteful contempt for the outside world.
Explanation:
The character of Rodion is from Fyodor Dostoevsky's "Crime and Punishment". He is shown as a poor ex- law student in need of money who commits a crime t fund his educational purposes.
We can know Rodion is "<em>poverty stricken</em>" by the way the writer had written in the very first chapter of the book. The narrator states "<em>He was hopelessly in debt to his landlady</em>" and that "<em>He was crushed by poverty</em>". Such was his condition, which we again see in the later lines "<em>He was so badly dressed that even a man accustomed to shabbiness would have been ashamed to be seen in the street in such rags</em>".
He wasn't bothered at all to wear his shabby clothes outside as he has too much of contempt and spite for the outside world. The narrator tells us that he had "<em>accumulated bitterness and contempt in the young man’s heart, that, in spite of all the fastidiousness of youth, he minded his rags least of all in the street</em>".

I will be completly honest! I am horrible at predicates so I looked it up and here is an example off the internet.
Here's an example. In the sentence "The wall is purple," the subject is "wall," the predicate adjective is "purple" and the linking verb is "is." So, it's subject, verb, and predicate adjective.

In grammar rules, an antecedent can be identified in a sentence because it is later replaced by a pronoun. An antecedent also refers in a sentence to something that happened in the past.
In the sentence provided as an example, the Venetian 'merchants' is the noun that is later replaced by its respective pronoun (theirs). The verb brought also tells us it was something that happened in the past.
