Answer :

In the given sentences, the subject is the part of the sentence that tells us who or what the sentence is about, while the predicate is the part that tells us something about the subject. Let's identify the subjects and predicates in each sentence:

1. The people are demanding for peace and security.
- Subject: The people
- Predicate: are demanding for peace and security.

2. The books in my bag are all English books.
- Subject: The books in my bag
- Predicate: are all English books.

3. He painted the house yellow.
- Subject: He
- Predicate: painted the house yellow.

4. Boys are cleaning the classroom.
- Subject: Boys
- Predicate: are cleaning the classroom.

5. They love trekking.
- Subject: They
- Predicate: love trekking.

6. My mother and his aunt are friends.
- Subject: My mother and his aunt
- Predicate: are friends.

By identifying the subject and predicate in each sentence, we can understand the structure of the sentence better. The subject is the main focus, and the predicate provides information or action about the subject.
