The correct answer is B. Pahom is unhappy

Explanation:

A linking verb is a type of verb that connects the subject and the predicate, different to other verbs they do not describe a specific or explicit action carried out by the subject, but the meaning of the verb is provided by the relationship established between the subject and the predicate, linking verbs include verbs such as feel, seem, be, taste, resemble among others. In the case of "Pahom is unhappy" the verb is "is" which is a form of verb to be that is classified as a linking verb, this can be explained as there is not a direct action but a link (is) between the subject (Pahom) and the Predicate (unhappy), this linking verb is the one that determines the meaning and thus, if it is linking a different subject and predicate the meaning changes. In this way, the sentence "Pahom is unhappy" is the one containing a linking verb (verb to be) as the verb just links the different parts of a sentence, but does not express a direct action.

The answer is B. The linking verb is 'is'. Linking verbs do not show any action but they connect the subject of a sentence to a word that gives information about that subject.

The rhyme scheme in the poem 'Jabberwocky' alternates between stanzas what is the two stanza rhyme scheme in this passage from j
Ksivusya [100]
I believe there is a mistake in your choices, because I don't see the correct choice here. The correct answer should be ABAB ABCB.
This is because in the first stanza, the first line A (son) rhymes with the third line A (shun), and the second line B (catch) rhymes with the fourth line B (Bandersnatch) - which makes the first stanza ABAB. 
In the second stanza, the first line A doesn't rhyme with anything (hand), the second line B (sought) rhymes with the fourth line B (thought), and the third line C doesn't rhyme with anything - which makes the second stanza ABCB.

THE ANSWER IS C. A great leader has great self-control and makes sound decisions. Odysseus, while B could have been an answer, he could not only rely on the opinions of his men, he had to make decisions that he thought were wise because he was their leader. In this instance, Od. had no self-control, letting his immense hubris override his decision making. And we know that he could have made a better decision because he is considered to be the wisest of the kings.
