Question

Identify the complement to the verb in the following sentence:
Bill Prentiss became president of the society.

• A. Bill Prentiss
• B. became
• C. president
• D. president of the society

Answer 1

The correct option is D president of the society

A subject complement is an adjective or a noun that follows the linking verb. Here, "president of the society" follows "became". Hence, Option D is correct. The rest of the options do not point out the complement, hence incorrect.
