I looked this question up online, and this is the complete question that I found:
What part of speech is the bold word in the sentence below?
Exhausted and breathless, Charlie navigated the wooded path, desperate to avoid capture.
a. verb
b. adverb
c. adjective
d. noun
Answer:
The bold word "navigated" is a:
a. verb
Explanation:
A verb is a word that expresses an action or a state. Verbs are part of the predicate, and they help introduce information about the subject of the sentence. Verbs must agree with the subject they refer to, that is, the verb will be singular or plural depending on what the subject is. Examples of verbs are: to go, to try, to sleep, to dance, to forgo, to awake, to eat, etc.
In the sentence above, the word "navigated" is a verb that expresses action. It is conjugated in the past form to indicate that the action started and finished at a specific time in the past.
He is presented as a loyal and heroic warrior who had no apparent lust for power. However, the flames of ambition could be seen when he uttered "tell me more" after the witches prophecy. The prophecy, however, is half finished and he is responsible for finishing it off himself. Thus, the main plot is set in motion and is a chilling foreshadowing of the influence of power and the corruption it has, even on a "good" person like Macbeth. Macbeth is seriously conflicted between a number of possibilities. He seriously considers letting fate take its course ("If chance would have me king, why then let chance crown me."), taking agressive action ("Prince of Cumberland! That is a step on which I must fall down or else o'erleap for in my way it lies."), and doing nothing and disregarding the prophecy ("We shall proceed no further in this business.") What drives him to commit the murder is not "vaulting ambition" but his fear that his wife will consider him less than manly.
