Your friend hugh asks you to outline the steps involved with the writing process. which of the following
options would you state as an answer based on what you learned in this lesson?
a. plan, write your first draft, edit your writing, and write your final draft
b. write your first draft, revise, and write your final draft
c. plan and write your final draft
d. write your first draft, scan it for errors, and write your final draft

The correct answer is C. I bought a book, an atlas of famous caves.

Appositives and appositive phrases are used to describe subjects and direct objects. They are usually separated from the rest of the sentence using commas.

A is incorrect because the appositive a windbreaker is renaming the subject my jacket; B is incorrect because the appositive phrase a historic explorer is renaming the predicate nominative an archaeologist; D is incorrect because the appositive phrase the name of a famous operatic tenor is renaming object complement rather than the direct object.

This leaves us with sentence C - here, the noun a book is a direct object, and the appositive phrase an atlas of famous caves renames it.
