  • Question 10
    1 / -0
    Separate the following sentence into Subject and Predicate:
    The beautiful rainbow soon faded away.
    Solution
    The subject of a complete sentence is who or what the sentence is about, and the predicate tells about that subject.
    The given sentence is about "the beautiful rainbow". Hence this is the subject.
    Also, the subject is what performs/receives an action. The action here is 'faded'. (The other words 'soon' and 'away' both modify this verb.) Thus, it constitutes the predicate which tells us about the subject.
    Hence, the subject is: The beautiful rainbow
    The predicate is: soon faded away.
    So, option C is correct.
    Option A: 'Soon' is an adverb that modifies the verb 'faded'. Hence it cannot be included in the subject.
    Options B and D: The subject can never include a verb.
    Hence these options are incorrect.
