Explanation:
The subject of the sentence is what the sentence is about. It tells us who or what performs the action expressed by the verb or who/what is being described.
The predicate tells us what the subject is doing or describes the subject.
To correctly match the subjects with predicates, you need to pay attention to their meanings and the subject-verb agreement. Sentences need to make sense. This is why you wouldn't say that children have six legs. You should connect the subject <em>all insects </em>with the predicate <em>have six legs. </em>
The subject-verb agreement is a rule according to which the subject and verb must agree in number. If the subject is singular, the verb should be as well. The same applies when the subject is plural - the verb needs to be plural too.
