Wilde is the master of satire and triviality, for good reason. At the end, when all is revealed, he keeps things lighthearted by continuing the jokes, so to speak. Instead of showing the women getting angry, he shows them scheming how to go from there before teasing them and forgiving them. Let us also not forget the entrance of Lady Bracknell, who while imposing, does present an interesting relief from trivialities. Because she's so serious about things, she's comical because you can't take her seriously. She's just one other ridiculous character in a ridiculous play.

Explanation:
A "predicate nominative" refers to a noun/pronoun that is used to rename the subject of the sentence. It is always found <em>after the linking verb. </em>Remember that it is part of the "predicate" in the sentence.
The predicate in the sentence above is:<em> "was the London Underground." </em>Therefore, the predicate nominative should be found here. As mentioned above, the predicate nominative should follow after a linking verb. The linking verb above is<em> "was."</em> The only noun following it is the<em> "London Underground."</em> It is also used to rename or identify the subject in the sentence, which is the "first subway system in the world." This makes choice c as the answer.
