	~~kjhjkh~~		The Direct Object
			Test for identifying direct objects in English
			Passivization: The direct object of an active sentence appears as the subject in a passive sentence.
			Active: Pat wrote a letter.
			Passive: A letter was written by Pat.
			post-verbal NPs that are not direct objects do not passivize:
			Pat will always remain a good friend.
			* A good friend will always be remained by Pat.
			Categories and structural position
			The direct object is an NP in accusative case. It can also be an S'.
			It is a sister of V and dominated by a VP.
			A direct object that is an S' can be identified by the following criteria:
			The S' can be replaced with this, such that this satisfies the criteria for an NP direct object:
			Pat thinks [S': that Kim is late], and I think this, too.
			Passivization is possible:
			Pat believes [S': that Kim is late]. -> [S':That Kim is late] is believed (by Pat).
			Example:
			_S_
			/ \
			/ AuxP
			/ / \
			subj / VP
			/ / / \
			/ / / dir.obj
			/ / / \
			NP Aux V __NP__
			/__\ \| \| /______\
			Pat will write a letter.

			The Subject
			The Indirect Object
