Abse Identifying Direct and Indirect Objects Decide whether each word or phrase is a direct object or an indirect object. - Did you give Annabelle the homework? blew Min's hat down the road. - Liza gave the teacher her homework. - I left my gloves on the subway. - Angelo threw the towel angrily. - I took my seat in the front row.

To identify direct and indirect objects in each sentence, we need to understand the definitions: - **Direct Object (DO)**: A noun or pronoun that receives the action of the verb directly. It answers the question "what?" or "whom?" after the verb. - **Indirect Object (IO)**: A noun or pronoun that indirectly receives the action of the verb. It answers the question "to whom?" or "for whom?" the action is done. Now, let's analyze each sentence: 1. **Did you give Annabelle the homework?** - **Direct Object**: the homework (what was given?) - **Indirect Object**: Annabelle (to whom was it given?) 2. **blew Min's hat down the road.** - **Direct Object**: Min's hat (what was blown?) - **Indirect Object**: None (there is no recipient of the action here) 3. **Liza gave the teacher her homework.** - **Direct Object**: her homework (what was given?) - **Indirect Object**: the teacher (to whom was it given?) 4. **I left my gloves on the subway.** - **Direct Object**: my gloves (what was left?) - **Indirect Object**: None (there is no recipient of the action here) 5. **Angelo threw the towel angrily.** - **Direct Object**: the towel (what was thrown?) - **Indirect Object**: None (there is no recipient of the action here) 6. **I took my seat in the front row.** - **Direct Object**: my seat (what was taken?) - **Indirect Object**: None (there is no recipient of the action here) ### Summary: - **Sentence 1**: DO - the homework, IO - Annabelle - **Sentence 2**: DO - Min's hat, IO - None - **Sentence 3**: DO - her homework, IO - the teacher - **Sentence 4**: DO - my gloves, IO - None - **Sentence 5**: DO - the towel, IO - None - **Sentence 6**: DO - my seat, IO - None
