choose the sentence that has a subject complement

the nurse felt the pulse
I felt much better
the day ended with many surprises
we can't believe without seeing her

A subject complement is a noun, adjective, or pronoun after a verb. It means the same as the subject or describes the subject.

The complement in the first sentence is "pulse." Is "pulse" the same as nurse? Does "pulse" describe the nurse? No. Then the first sentence does not have a subject complement.

That gets you started. Which of the other three sentences has a subject complement? We'll be glad to check your answer.

The sentence that has a subject complement is "I felt much better."

To identify the subject complement in a sentence, you need to look for a verb that links the subject to a noun or adjective that describes or renames the subject. In this case, the verb "felt" is linking the subject "I" to the adjective "much better," which describes the subject. Therefore, "much better" is the subject complement in this sentence.
