a. secretly flattered by Mrs. Turner's suggestion.
b. questioning her relationship with Mrs. turner.
c. devoted to Tea Cake and unaffected by Mrs. turner's opinions.
d. angry at Tea Cake for secretly listening in on her conversation.
Answer:
We can reasonably infer that Janie is:
c. devoted to Tea Cake and unaffected by Mrs. turner's opinions.
Explanation:
Janie and Tea Cake are characters in Zora Neale Hurston's novel "Their Eyes Were Watching God". The main character is an African-American woman named Janie, whose life has been defined by her race and gender.
Janie is very clear that Mrs. Turner is barking up the wrong tree. After two marriages, Janie finally met Tea Cake, her third husband. Although readers may easily see this marriage as being far from perfect, it is indeed what Janie always dreamed of. She is loyal to Tea Cake, and has not intention of leaving him for another man. Mrs. Turner's opinions have no effect over Janie.
1. D; a good way to find predicate nominative is that it essentially describes the subject. Mrs. Randoll being the subject- teacher describes her.
2. A: A predicate adjective modifies the subject in someway. In this case, she becomes "skillful"
3. C: A direct object answers the question of what? or who? She makes delicious what? Oh, desserts you say... then this must be a direct object.
4. D: direct object. Jessica bakes what? Pies!
As an FYI: indirect objects are rare and the sentence has to first have a direct object. So if there's no direct object, you can automatically eliminate IO. An example of one would be: They sent him mail. They is the subject. sent is the verb. And they sent what? "mail" so that's the direct object, making "him" the indirect object. Long story short... learn direct objects... and you won't have to even consider if there's an indirect unless you encounter a sentence that already has a direct, but the question asks about another word.
