The boxed words are a compound subject.

In a sentence talking about people, the people are subjects of that sentence. Subjects are basically what is being talked about.

Because there are two people being talked about, Bob and Al, the subjects are counted as one, or compounded. This just means that you read the sentence as [Bob and Al] instead of [Bob] and Al.

Compound verbs follow the same concept, but for action words. For example, “to sing and to dance”. However, in this case since the boxed words are subjects, they are a compound subject.

Vinvika [58]

Answer and Explanation:

Cleft sentences are used to connect something previously understood to new information or to emphasize something by placing it in a different clause. When we use this type of structure, we are basically dividing a piece of information into two clauses. It is common to use <em>it</em> or <em>wh-</em> words to form the cleft sentence.

2. We're looking for someone who is a team player. - What we are looking for is someone who is a team player.

3. He would prefer to walk to the theater. - What he would prefer is to walk to the theater.

4. She wrote the most popular mystery novel of the year. - It was she who wrote the most popular mystery novel of the year. / What she wrote was the most popular mystery novel of the year.

5. We saw the most dangerous snake in the world. - What we saw was the most dangerous snake in the world. / It was the most dangerous snake in the world that we saw.

6. She had a terrible case of the flu. - What she had was a terrible case of the flu.
