Solution

The correct option is D Subject: I; Predicate: shot an arrow into the air
The subject is who or what the sentence is about, and the predicate tells something about the subject. Here the sentence is about an arrow, and the sentence says that it was shot into the air by me. Therefore, Option D is correct. In rest of the options, either the information is taken as the subject(Option A,B), a part of the information is included along with the object of focus,(Option C).
