Question

Which of the following sentences has both an indirect and a direct object?

• A. She gave her friend a gift.
• B. She is a doctor.
• C. The weather is cold.
• D. They visited the museum.

Answer 1

Answer:

A. She gave her friend a gift.

A sentence with both an indirect object (IO) and a direct object (DO) follows the pattern:

Subject + Verb + Indirect Object + Direct Object

• She (Subject)

• gave (Verb)

• her friend (Indirect Object – the recipient of the action)

• a gift (Direct Object – the thing being given)
