well, the predicate is the "what" so that eliminates men. then, out of process of elimination, and im pretty sure that time isnt the answer because it doesnt make sense "the men finished in a short time"- by definition.. predicate is the what, and it doesnt make sense to say "the men the game." i mean, there is nothing there basically. so the only logic answer is B "the men finished..in a short time"... do you know what im saying
so after all that the answer is B i just hope i helped with future questions

Uh...B.
The predicate is "finished the game in a short time" and the simple predicate is the verb. So, finished is the verb.

C. game. The verb, finished, refers to what was finished, the game! I cant believe I remember that, it's been a while since I was out of school. Thank you for making me feel young again.
