Answer: "She is the starling of the team" is the grammatically correct sentence.

Explanation: In this sentence, "is" acts as the linking verb. It is a form of the linking verb "to be". However, "to be" has another form, "are". The type of verb to be used can usually be determined by how the sentence sounds.

The main way of deciding the verb to use is to relate it to the noun which is performing the action. If the noun itself is singular, "is" must be used whereas for plural nouns "are" is to be used.

When the form of verb is in accordance to the subject, it is called subject-verb agreement.

In the given sentence, the subject is "she". Thus, the subject is singular. As a result, "is" is used and the correct sentence is "She is  the starling of the team".

Answer: "And the silken sad uncertain rustling of each purple curtain / Thrilled me-filled me with fantastic terrors never felt before;"

Explanation: In "The Raven", by Edgar Allan Poe, lines that are most effective in creating suspense in this poem are the above mentioned. The alliteration helps readers imagine what the curtains sound like, and the mood that this sound creates is a suspenseful mood. The narrator is reading on a bleak December night to forget that his beloved Lenore is dead. The sudden noise of the curtains fill him with fear, "...filled me with fantastic terrors". He tries to convince himself that it is some visitor and nothing more.
