11. It is a direct object.

A direct object is the recipient of the verb. It was answers the question Verb + what? In this case, pass what? Them.

12. Possessive pronouns are spelled with apostrophes.

This is never true. Possessive pronouns do not have apostrophes. They do come before nouns: her shoes. The do act as adjectives when accompanied by a noun because they describe who the noun belongs to. The can take the place of a noun: Those shoes are hers (replaces Sarah's).

13. A pronoun

A pronoun takes the place of one or more nouns. Sarah's shoes - Her shoes. Dan and Scott's game - Their game.

14. her

Her is always a possessive pronoun. There is no other possessive pronoun in the sentence. It describes whose answer it is.

15. Nicole helped Tamara with her French homework.

Helped is the action verb that we can actually see taking place.

16. Australia

Australia is a proper noun because it is a specific place. It is also capitalized. Penguins is capitalized because it is the first word of the sentence. The sentence is not talking about a specific penguin, just penguins in general so it is not a proper noun.

17. his

His describes whose jeans they are.

18. shoes

Of is the preposition. The object of the preposition is the noun that follows the preposition.

19. crosswalk

A compound noun is when two words that can be independent are put together to form one word. In this case, the words cross and walk are put together to form the word crosswalk which is where people are supposed to walk across the street.

20. she

The entire sentence is about She and what she needs to do.

21. The

The is the best article because a specific mountain top is being referred to.

22. on the shore

On is a preposition. The prepositional phrase ends with the noun that follows the preposition, shore.

23. We should stop and ask for directions.

Should is the helping verb. Stop and ask are the main verbs in the sentence.

24. a word that names a person, place, or thing

Examples of nouns in each of these categories are girl, house, and freedom.

25. for

For is a coordinating conjunction. Other coordinating conjunctions are and, nor, but, or, yet, so.
