Question

Identify the subject in the given sentence:

He was addicted to his cellphone.

• A. He
• B. addicted
• C. cellphone
• D. his

Answer 1

The correct option is A He

The subject of the sentence is the performer of the action.

Option B - 'Addicted' is an adjective here as it describes the pronoun 'he'. Thus option B is incorrect.

Option C - 'Cellphone' is an object in the sentence as it is the object of the sentence. Thus option C is incorrect.

Option D - 'His' is a pronoun. Thus option D is incorrect.

Option A - 'He' is the doer of the action in the sentence and hence 'he' is the subject. Thus option A is the correct answer.
