In a sentence or clause, the predicate refers to the part which expresses what is said of the subject. It usually consists of a verb with or without objects, complements, or adverbial modifiers.

There are the following types of the predicate: (1) The Simple Predicate, consisted in a verb in some tense, voice, person, number and mood, (2) The Compound Verbal Modal Predicate, which consists of a modal verb plus the Infinitive, (3) The Compound Verbal Aspect Predicate, which consists of a verb denoting the beginning, the continuation or the end of the action plus the Infinitive or the Gerund and (4) The Compound Nominal Predicate, that consists of a link-verb and a predicative (the nominal part) which can be expressed with different parts of speech.

In The particular sentence “After Mary graduated, she was offered a promotion at her job” the predicate would be the underlined: After Mary graduated, she was offered a promotion at her job”.

This particular sentence could be considered as an example of the last type of predicate described above, The Compound Verbal Aspect Predicate, since it consists of a link-verb and a nominal part expressed with different parts of speech.

<h3>What challenges does the writer face?</h3>

Persuasive writing is, in my opinion, the most difficult sort of writing for a professional writer in this area. This writer must persuade people from all political and non-political parties that their candidate is the best fit for the people and the nation.

Of course, not everyone will agree with this person's viewpoints, but it is that person's responsibility to persuade everyone. That is why I believe persuasive writing is the most difficult professional writing a person can accomplish.

How does the Earth probably compare in orbital speed to the other planets?

azamat

The Earth probably compares in orbital speed to other planets because;

A. The Earth moves faster than the planets that are farther from the sun.

This is because Kepler's second law says that on its orbit, a planet will sweep equal areas in equal amounts of time.

Thus means that when the Earth is closer to the Sun, it's moving faster than when it is farther away.
