Which of the following sentences has a compound predicate? A. With the right investments, Steve thinks he can get rich. B. Heather and Casey played basketball and tennis all day. C. My whole family enjoys skiing and snowboarding. D. Yesterday I cleaned and painted my kitchen.
Keep in mind that a compound predicate has two or more verbs. Based on that information alone, we can eliminate A and B. With C, this one seems like it could work, but it actually doesn't. The verb in that sentence is "enjoy", and in this case, "skiing" and "skateboarding" are nouns. (because they're the object of the predicate verb.) That leaves D as the answer!
