स्पष्टीकरण:
SPOCA विश्लेषणाचे घटक:
•
(a) Your daughter is pretty: 'pretty' हे विशेषण 'Your daughter' या कर्त्याचे (Subject) वर्णन पूर्ण करते, म्हणून ते Subject Complement (Cs) आहे.
•
(b) He made his wife happy: 'happy' हे विशेषण 'his wife' या कर्माचे (Object) वर्णन पूर्ण करते, म्हणून ते Object Complement (Co) आहे.
•
(c) He had given the girl an apple (an apple अधोरेखित): 'an apple' ही प्रत्यक्ष दिली गेलेली वस्तू (What was given?) आहे, म्हणून ते Direct Object (Od) आहे.
•
(d) He had given the girl an apple (the girl अधोरेखित): 'the girl' ही ज्या व्यक्तीला वस्तू दिली गेली (To whom was it given?) ती व्यक्ती आहे, म्हणून ते Indirect Object (Oi) आहे.
योग्य अनुक्रम: Cs, Co, Od, Oi (पर्याय ४).

English Explanation / स्पष्टीकरण:
Answer: Option (4)
Explanation:
Functional analysis using the SPOCA framework:
•
(a) Your daughter is pretty: 'pretty' describes the subject 'Your daughter' via the linking verb 'is' -> Subject Complement (Cs).
•
(b) He made his wife happy: 'happy' attributes a state to the direct object 'his wife' resulting from the action -> Object Complement (Co).
•
(c) He had given the girl an apple (an apple underlined): Identifies the thing transferred (Direct Object) -> Od.
•
(d) He had given the girl an apple (the girl underlined): Identifies the recipient entity (Indirect Object) -> Oi.
Thus, the correct sequential order of functions is Cs, Co, Od, Oi (Option 4).

High-Yield Exam Strategy Tip
SPOCA system:
•
Cs = Subject Complement (follows copular verbs like be, seem, look)
•
Co = Object Complement (completes sense of transitive verbs like make, call, elect)
•
Oi = Indirect Object (recipient, answers 'to whom')
•
Od = Direct Object (theme/patient, answers 'what').
