Tells a story that can be real or fictional. Has characters and a plot. Has a beginning, a middle, and an end in chronological order.
A transitive verb demands an object, such as in the following case: She is reading a book. The verb <em>to read </em>demands the direct object <em>a book </em>which is why it is transitive.
On the other hand, intransitive verbs do not need an object to complete them, such as in the case: She is sleeping.
In the sentence above, the verb <em>was </em>is a past tense of the verb <em>to be, </em>and it is used as a linking verb in the sentence, connecting the first part with the adjective <em>beautiful. </em>Since there is no object in the sentence, the correct answer is <u>intransitive</u>.
