in sentence 5, the underlined word is a/an___
A .subject
B. predicate
C. direct object
D. indirect object

B. predicate

C. direct object

In sentence 5, the underlined word "him" is a direct object.

To identify the answer, we need to understand the roles of different parts of a sentence.

The subject of a sentence is the noun or pronoun that performs the action or is being described.
The predicate is the part of the sentence that provides information about the subject, including the verb and any other associated words or phrases.
Direct objects receive the action of the verb and answer the question "what" or "whom" after the verb.
Indirect objects receive the direct object and answer the question "to whom" or "for whom" or "to what" or "for what" after the verb.

In this sentence, "him" is directly receiving the action of the verb "given." Therefore, "him" is the direct object of the sentence.

So, the answer is C. direct object.
