    Need help with basic English grammar

    Okay I'm trying to be better at English so I'm doing some basic English worksheets and I want to check my answers:

    So here are some of the questions, I just want to see if I'm right. Just tell me the answers to these:


    What is the complete subject and the complete predicate of the following sentences:

    1. Here is the tennis racket he used when he won the tennis match.
    2. He was wearing green shorts, a blue palid shirt, and white socks.
    3. The tennis racket, balls, a towel, and dirty clothes littered the floor of his room.

    What is the gerund, participial, and infinitive phrases of the following sentences?

    1. Getting into college was Bet's first goal toward a successful career.
    2. She needed to study diligently
    3. Knowing she shouldn't, Beth went out with friends before a big test.

    What is the prepositional phrases in teh following sentence and appositive phrases?

    1. On the way to the train station, we saw a man walking a large, furry dog.
    2. The dog, a husky, watched everything, but stayed at the man's side.
    3. Siberian huskies, a breed of working dog, often have blue eyes.
    4. Having one blue and one brown eye is also common for the breed.
    5. In my imagination, I could see myself on a sled winning the Iditarod, an Alaskan dogsled race, with a team of blue-eyed huskies.

    What is the independent and dependent clauses in the following sentences? Is the sentence compound, complex, or compound-complex?

    1. The whales surfaced, but we didn't see them at first.
    2. When the whales were breaching, we were able to see much of their huge bodies.
    3. Whales are mammals, so they have to surface to breathe; however, since the blowholes through which they breathe are on the top of their heads, they can remain mostly submerged while breathing.

    Thank you for taking the time to do these, I just want to check my answers.
