Verb phrases are verbs that may function as a predicate, adjective, or adverb.

(a) "That he said" is an adjective modifying "word". However, this contains the s ubject"he" and the verb "said". It is a clause and NOT a phrase. Phrases can only have either a verb or a noun.
(b) There's only one verb "was" but it does not come with a complement, object, modifier, or other verb. Hence, it's NOT a verb phrase.
(c) "Shall be" consists of the modal shall and the be-verb be. This is a perfect example of a verb phrase that functions as a VERB PHRASE.
(d) "Roared" and "charged" are two verbs referring to different subjects. They do not come with a complement, object, modifier, or another verb. Hence, they're NOT a verb phrase. "As the bull charged" is a clause and not a phrase.

The answer then is C.

andreev551 [17]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

This statement is true because a writer wouldn't excel in spatial insight, as a sculptor wouldn't do so in analogies. Analogies are linguistic expressions commonly used at writting. On the other hand, spatial insight gives someone the ability to visualize with the mind's eye, this area of intelligence is commonly used in visual artists.
