Solution

The correct option is D Subject: the shepherd; Predicate: hears a barking sound
The shepherd is the focus, he is the one being talked about. The verb hears indicates the action undertaken by the shepherd. Thus, the shepherd is the subject, whereas the rest of the sentence is the predicate. Hence, Option D is the correct answer.
