Task Explanation:

The task requires identifying the subject and the predicate in each sentence. Here's a brief explanation of these terms:

- Predicate: The predicate is the part of the sentence that tells what the subject is doing or what is happening to the subject. It typically includes the verb and other elements that provide additional information.
