Answer:
The different uses and perspectives around books, and the power they have in our future.
Explanation:
This poem by Celo Kulagoe, published in "Some modern poetry from the Solomon Islands" (1975) describes the way the Teacher, the Preacher, and the Dealer introduce her to books, and how the way she chooses to approach them might have a great impact on what the future hold for her.
For example, the preacher says to "follow this narrow trail," which might represent the limited scope of religion on knowledge and science, something that the author seems to want to avoid, as she longs for the wisdom provided by books.
Answer:
The verb in the sentence is:
a) transitive
Explanation:
A transitive verb exerts its action on an object, which means it can only express its meaning completely if that object is mentioned. In the sentence "Rings on the scales of some fish show the age of the fish," the verb is "show". To find the object, we have to ask the verb a question: the rings show what? They show the age of the fish. "the age of the fish" is the complete object of the verb "show". Therefore, the verb "show" is transitive.

f). A beautiful song had been sung by Priyanka.(Passive Voice)
Explanation:
Indirect speech is described as a form of speech that is used to express the content of a declaration or any other thing that another has said using discrete words. It helps in conveying the same message using distinct words and often a change in tense(except for the universal truth as given in 'b' part of the first question('it rains in July')).
Active Voice is the form of grammatical construction in which the subject itself performs the action and leads the sentence while in passive voice, the sentence is led by the object and action of the verb. In the active voice, the subject is the primary emphasis of the sentence while in the passive voice, the subject receives the action. But the passive of an 'intransitive' verb cannot be formed because it does not have an object.
