Answer 1

Answer:

SUBJECT

A subject is a part of a sentence that contains the person or thing performing the action.

For example- Deenise was the best student in the class.

Here Deenise is the Subject as the sentence is explained about her.

PREDICATE

A predicate is the part of a sentence, or a clause, that tells what the subject is doing or what the subject is. Let's take the same sentence from before:

Deenise was the best student in the class.

Here was the best student in the class was taken as predicate as it tells information about the subject.

Explanation:

Coming to your sentence:

Singing was his favourite activity

So Singing is the main action referred here

While was his favourite activity tells us about the subject
