Question 2 • VT-SAT-Reading and Writing

What is the predicate of the sentence?

Answer
A
the dog
B
curled up in bed
C
in bed

Explanation

The predicate tells what the subject does or what is said about it. In the sentence, “the dog” is the subject, and “curled up in bed” tells what the dog did. “In bed” is only part of the predicate, not the whole predicate.
