Answer:
6. What are you buying?
7. Do you play basketball?
8. What have you become?
9. What do they have?
10. What is she going to take.
Explanation:
6. I wrote this answer for the sixth one because it refers to ‘ What is she buying?’
7. Because the given sentence is already a question.
8. This is because the question refers to ‘ what have you become?’ because the second person will always say ‘ I have’ instead of ‘You have’.
9. This is because the sentence refers to ‘ What do they have?’
10. This is because the sentence refers to ‘ What will she take?’
You didn't italize or mark the phrase, but I see one good candidate:
"The circus animal trainer" is in a way another name given to Mervin, a kind of "renaming" him: this is called an appositive phrase, so if this was the phrase appositive phrase is the answer! (also, I don't see the other phrases here).
I think it was c but I'm not 100% sure its been years since ive read the book
