You are very welcome.
1) In sentence 1, the word in parentheses is the subject. To find the answer, you can identify the subject by looking for the noun or pronoun that performs the action or is being described. In this case, the word "you" is the subject of the sentence.
2) In sentence 2, the word in parentheses is a direct object. To identify the direct object, you can ask "what" or "whom" after the verb. In this sentence, the verb is "elected" and the direct object is "the 43rd (president)."
3) In sentence 3, the word in parentheses is a predicate. The predicate is the part of a sentence that includes the main verb and all the words that come after it and provide more information about the subject. In this sentence, the main verb is "were elected" and the words in parentheses ("more than once") provide additional information about the action of the subject.
4) In sentence 4, the word in parentheses is a prepositional phrase. A prepositional phrase includes a preposition and its object. In this sentence, the preposition is "to" and the object is "four terms (in office)."
5) In sentence 5, the verb phrase in parentheses is "Given him." A verb phrase consists of a main verb and its auxiliary (helping) verbs. In this sentence, the main verb is "given" and the auxiliary verb is "would have."
6) In sentence 5, the word in parentheses is an indirect object. An indirect object receives the direct object and answers the question "to whom" or "for whom" the action is done. In this sentence, the indirect object is "him."
