Choose the correct pattern for the following sentence.

  1. Electric cars take several hours to recharge.
AS-V-O (subject, verb, object)
BS-V-IO (subject, verb, indirect object)
CS-V-N (subject, verb, predicate noun/noun)
DS-V-A (subject, verb, adjective)

I personally think it's 'D', but I'm completely unsure... I'd appreciate some feedback and an explanation, thank you!

The correct pattern for the sentence: "Electric cars take several hours to recharge" is option A. S-V-O. Subject, verb, object.

Electric cars is the subject (electric is an adjective and car a noun). Take is the verb and "several hours to recharge" is the object direct.

A direct object will follow a transitive verb which is a type of action verb. Direct objects can be nouns, pronouns, phrases, or clauses.

Direct objects may be single words as well asphrases or clauses. The pattern nevertheless works the same.
