To complete this task, you will need a piece of paper and a pencil or pen. Follow these steps:
1. Start by writing the sentence "We hear stories about cowboys and life in the old west" onto your paper.
2. Read the sentence carefully to identify the subject and predicate.
- The subject is the part of the sentence that tells who or what the sentence is about. In this case, the subject is "We."
- The predicate is the part of the sentence that tells what the subject does or is. In this case, the predicate is "hear stories about cowboys and life in the old west."
3. Draw a vertical line between the complete subject ("We") and the complete predicate ("hear stories about cowboys and life in the old west"). This will visually separate the two parts of the sentence.
4. Underline the subject ("We") once to highlight it.
5. Underline each verb in the predicate ("hear" and "stories") twice to highlight them.
After following these steps, you will have successfully completed the task of copying the sentences onto your paper and marking the subject and verbs as specified.
