Answer
The sentence pattern in "We are listed on page 38 of the directory" is:a. subject-linking verb-complementExplanation:- "We" is the subject.- "are listed" functions as a linking verb phrase (with "are" being the linking verb and "listed" acting as a past participle complement).- "on page 38 of the directory" is a prepositional phrase providing additional information about the subject.Therefore, the correct answer is:a. subject-linking verb-complement
