Answer:B
Explanation: A linking verb connects a subject to a verb and also describes the action that is done by the subject. The linking verb cannot express an action on its own. It needs the subject of the sentence to express an action.
An example of a linking verb is "be" which is the most commonly used. The purpose of "be" is to indicate the state of the action subject in a sentence.

A true warrior should never back down from a battle according to him, and he remains loyal and helpful.
The themes of the book include morality and womanhood. Cassy commits infanticide not because she wanted to do it but because she had no choice.
