The correct answer(s) are: 1, 3, and 5.

Explanation:
In general, Gerund can act as a noun in the sentence. It can be formed by using the base form of verb + ing. For example: Paint, which can be used an a verb, is the base form + ing = Painting.

Vikentia [17]

Answer:

This is a poem that contains a guitar pick, a red balloon, and a wicker basket.

Explanation:

Looking through the window

Missing the years that have passed

Remember the days I spent at the park

That park gave me wisdom

Throughout my years a favorite object always accompanied me

At ten, it was my red ballon

The one with whom I practiced basketball

And the one that my friends always wanted to take away from me

As a teenager my guitar pick was

Which helped me compose beautiful melodies

Which helped me get to know the woman

With which I would spend the rest of my days

With that same woman it was with whom I acquired another favorite object

Our wicker basket with which we went to the park every day

She made sandwiches and cakes

To this day I can feel its taste
