If a sentence has both a subject and a direct object the subject is the actor and the direct object is acted upon. For example in the sentence He is reading a book, He is the subject, because He is doing the reading, while a book is the direct object, because it is the thing being read. It is acted upon by the subject.

Sentence	Finding the subject	Subject	Finding the object	Direct object
He is reading a book.	Who is reading?	He	What is he reading?	a book
Pablo treats Maria without respect.	Who is treating (without respect)?	Pablo	Who is Pablo treating (without respect)?	Maria

We already know the word order for the sentences above in Spanish.
