Answer 1

1.) grandmother gave Carlos and Tina a new PET last month.

A direct object - gave WHAT - aways direct object:)

2.) the dog is a beautiful SIBERIAN HUSKY with bright blue eyes.

D predicate nominative - in a way it "renames" the subject

3.) Carlos gave THE PUPPY the name sky because of the color of her eyes.

A indirect object - here the direct object is "the name..." and it is given TO the puppy


 
4.) her glossy gray and white fur is thick and SOFT

C predicate adjective - it's both predicate and an adjective!


5.) in her last letter, Tina sent HER FRIENDS some photographs of the sky.


C indirect object - answers "sent to whom?"


6.) in one photo, sky is catching a BALL in her mouth.


C direct object - she is catching WHAT?

7.) she appears quite HAPPY to go for a walk.


D predicate adjective - as before, both predicate and adjective


8.) her face is an EXPRESSION of health and vitality.

C predicate nominative

9.) she is sure to be a loving COMPANION to their family


B predicate nominative - here I am not too sure, but it's the best answer.


10.) dogs are fun, but we plan to get a new CAT instead

D - get what? a cat!
