Justice · Answer 1

"She did not believe that he actually knew the rules of bowling." Those statements are:

The sentence contains a gerund. > It applies, because of "bowling". The sentence contains a noun clause with a gerund inside it. > It applies, because the word "that" introduces the noun clause in this sentence, and the noun clause serves as the direct object of the verb "believe".

The other two don't apply to the sentence:

The sentence contains a present participle. The sentence contains a past participle.
