According to the description, we can see that Abeeba is a very strong and corpulent woman, unlike her husband. The author decided to give a wife so different from her husband so that it would be possible for her to bring about the changes he could not bring about.

Although you have not shown the text to which this question refers, we can state, through the context of your question, that you are referring to "The Prophet of Zongo Street."

By reading this story, we can see that:

  • Mallam Sile is a merchant, very popular, and kind.
  • He is an average-looking man, slight, but very friendly.
  • The people in the town end up taking advantage of his personality and appearance, proving damages in his shop and acting very negatively towards him.
  • One day, he travels and comes back married. His wife's name is Abeeba.
  • Abeeba is a strong, portly, and very smart woman.
  • She quickly realizes how her husband is treated badly by people, and how customers take advantage of him.
  • So she starts taking action to stop that from happening.

At first, the reader may wonder why the author gave a wife to Mallam Sile, so different from him. However, this difference between the two is essential to establish very important changes in history.

Exercise 1.
kondaur [170]

Answer:

The simple subject is the key noun or pronoun that tells what the sentence is about.

A compound subject is made up of two or more simple subjects that are joined by a

conjunction and have the same verb.

The lantern glows. Moths and bugs fly nearby.

2. The simple predicate is the verb or verb phrase that expresses the essential thought

about the subject of the sentence. A compound predicate is made up of two or more

verbs or verb phrases that are joined by a conjunction and have the same subject.

Rachel jogged down the hill.

Pete stretched and exercised for an hour.

3. The complete subject consists of the simple subject and all the words that modify it.

Golden curly hair framed the child’s face.

The soft glow of sunset made her happy.

4. The complete predicate consists of the simple predicate and all the words that modify

it or complete its meaning.

Lindy ate a delicious muffin for breakfast.

The apple muffin also contained raisins.

5. Usually the subject comes before the predicate in a sentence. In inverted sentences, all

or part of the predicate precedes the subject.

(You) Wait for me at the corner. (request)

Through the toys raced the children. (inverted)

Is the teacher feeling better? (question)

There are seats in the first row.
