Your answer is A: "As a courtesy, most ships usually fly the national flag of whichever country they are visiting". In order to identify the complements a verb selects, you should take into account verb patters.

First of all, you identify the main verb. In this case, it is the verb "to fly" in its transitive form (somebody flies something). The NP "most ships" functions as the subject of the sentence and "the national flag of whichever country they are visiting" is the D.O (direct object). The IP "whichever country they are visiting" is a subordinate clause which functions as the object of the PP (prepositional phrase) "of".

One night, Odysseus and his men found themselves stuck in a cave with the cyclopes (which are one-eyed, men-eating giants) and decided to blind him in order to escape. They got him drunk and with using a sharp-pointed stick they stuck it in his eye, plucking it out.

<span>The victim, after having collapsed in his loss after being pick pocketed, was largely ignored. People stood and watched as he acted on the way he did. Some ignored him, however, and it was a show of how terrible humans can be in that regard. Truthfully, it was a large loss also back then... so it was understandable that he'd react that way. A shame that others wouldn't be kind.</span>
