which is an example of a verb phrase in the sentence "saundra could have taken the easy route,but she focused on the reward of better physical fitness and ran up the hilly road instead of the flat road

Answer:

Ran up.

Explanation:

A verb is one of the parts of speech in English language. Verbs can be defined as any word that describes an action, occurrence, or state of existence. Some examples of verb are dance, sing, walk, play, run, sit, etc.

A verb phrase is simply the part of a sentence that contains both a verb and either an indirect or direct object.

Additionally, an object refers to the person, thing, idea or place that receives an action performed by the subject. Also, a direct object is the specific thing a subject acts upon and as such it answers the question of what, whom or who.

Hence, an example of a verb phrase in the sentence "Saundra could have taken the easy route, but she focused on the reward of better physical fitness and ran up the hilly road instead of the flat road" is ran up because it defines the dependent action.

I have to ask you to be alone in your consulting room, to admit with your own hand into the house a man who will present himself in my name, and to place in his hands the drawer that you will have brought with you from my cabinet. Then you will have played your part and earned my gratitude completely. Five minutes afterwards, if you insist upon an explanation, you will have understood that these arrangements are of capital importance; and that by the neglect of one of them, fantastic as they must appear, you might have charged your conscience with my death or the shipwreck of my reason. –The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, Robert Louis Stevenson What does the reader learn about Dr. Jekyll from his letter to Dr. Lanyon?
