Congratulations! All are correct except for 9.

Give is the verb and ticket is the direct object, making the verb transitive. Note that the subject is the understood subject, you.

I missed 10.

It's transitive because "what" is the direct object of "did have."

1. Correct, the verb "received" is transitive because it takes an object (a silver trophy).

2. Correct, the verb "gave" is transitive because it takes an object (him a check for $100).
3. Correct, the verb "played" is intransitive because it does not take a direct object.
4. Correct, the verb "won" is transitive because it takes an object (a silver plate).
5. Correct, the verb "gave" is transitive because it takes an object (Mariel some good advice).
6. Correct, the verb "told" is transitive because it takes an object (Mariel the judges' preferences).
7. Correct, the verb "gave" is transitive because it takes an object (the students complete instructions).
8. Correct, the verb "arrived" is intransitive because it does not take a direct object.
9. Incorrect, the verb "give" is transitive because it takes an object (the ticket) and a recipient (the usher).
10. Incorrect, the verb "have" is transitive in this sentence because it takes an object (dinner).

To determine whether a verb is transitive or intransitive, you need to understand the difference between them. A transitive verb requires a direct object to complete its meaning, while an intransitive verb does not require a direct object.

Here's how you can determine whether a verb is transitive or intransitive for each sentence:

1. "John received a silver trophy." - The verb "received" requires a direct object ("a silver trophy"), so it is transitive.

2. "The judge gave him a check for $100." - The verb "gave" requires a direct object ("him a check for $100"), so it is transitive.

3. "The contestants all played well." - The verb "played" does not require a direct object, so it is intransitive.

4. "Thomas won a silver plate in a different competition." - The verb "won" requires a direct object ("a silver plate"), so it is transitive.

5. "Kim gave Mariel some good advice about the contest." - The verb "gave" requires a direct object ("Mariel some good advice about the contest"), so it is transitive.

6. "She told Mariel the judges' preferences." - The verb "told" requires a direct object ("Mariel the judges' preferences"), so it is transitive.

7. "The operator gave the students complete instructions." - The verb "gave" requires a direct object ("the students complete instructions"), so it is transitive.

8. "Nikki arrived late for the movie." - The verb "arrived" does not require a direct object, so it is intransitive.

9. "Give the ticket to the usher." - The verb "give" is usually transitive, but in this sentence, it is being used in the imperative form. Imperative verbs can be either transitive or intransitive depending on the sentence structure. However, since there is no direct object mentioned in the sentence, "give" is considered intransitive.

10. "What did you have for dinner?" - The verb "have" can be both transitive or intransitive depending on the sentence context. In this sentence, it is used as an intransitive verb because there is no specific direct object mentioned.
