A DO answers the question ______ or ______ is impacted by the action. whowhat A DO is _____the subject of the sentence.  A Subject ________ the action. En français: _____________  A DO ________ the action. En français: _____________ NOT DOES un sujet RECEIVES un objet direct

Soulignez l’objet direct, SVP. Entourez le sujet, SVP. She did not answer her cell phone when it rang. The chocolate that Schepeez bought from her was good When Mr. Alm called Schepeez, he was angry.
