Question

Fill in the blanks with correct predicate. Green books of the library a. are lying on the table. b. has no cover. c. was kept in the shell,​

Answer 1

Green books of the library (a) are lying on the table.

Explanation:

Predicate:

• Every sentence has two parts subject and predicate.
• The predicate tells us what exactly the subject is doing.
• It contains the verb.

Explanation of incorrect options:

(b) has no cover- has is a singular verb, since 'books' is written it should be 'have'

(c) was kept in the shell- was is a singular verb, since 'books' is written it should be 'were'

Hence, green books of the library (a) are lying on the table.

Answer 2

Answer:

The correct option is (a) are lying on the table.

Complete sentence: Green books of the library are lying on the table.

Explanation:

• Subject and predicate are the two elements of any sentence.
• What the subject is doing specifically is revealed by the predicate.
• The verb is present.
• b) has no cover -Since "books" are written, the correct verb is "have," not "had."
• c) "Was kept in the shell" - Since "books" is a singular verb and is written, the correct word is "were."
• Hence the correct option is (a).
