Answer:
With officers in <em>the </em>(a)<em> </em>night, <em><u>he </u></em>(b)<em><u> </u></em>would march to <em><u>the canteen </u></em>(c)<em><u> </u></em><u><em>like a </em></u><em><u>guardsman. </u></em>(d)
(a) The article "the" is missing before the word night.
(b) "he" is the subject of this sentence. The subject is rather undefined, vague, and needs to be investigated for one to have a clearer understanding of what this snippet is all about.
(c) "the canteen": This is another mystery noun in the above sentence. It begs the question of location. It also raises the question of why the "he" would match off to a canteen in the night.
(d) "like a guardsman": This is a simile that electrocutes the imagination. In this sentence, the three words above, besides acting as a simile and imagery (both of which are literary tools), functions as an Adverbial Clause which serves to qualify the verb <u>march.</u>
Explanation:
The only instruction given in the question is to Annotate.
To annotate means to give more <em>meaning to, to explain, to interpret, or to make more meaningful.</em>
Please note that an adverbial clause is a dependent clause that while functioning as an adverb qualifies another adverb, a verb, or even an adjective.
By way of further annotation, it suffices to say (with respect to the Grammatical Person) that the sentence above is reported in the third person singular.

The death of a loved one is a disaster that nature cannot heal.
Answer: A
Explanation
Nature will not heal that wound that is left after losing a loved one.
Even though nature creates fascinating patterns, it will not close the wound left.
However, time will be the determinant of the healing process.
This is because the effect of losing someone is eternal, and it is time that will heal the wounds.
Ultimately, nature will only create shorter healing, but once the one forgets about life, the injuries will be still fresh.
Therefore nature does not repair everything.

<em>The character of the father (king) in “The Princess and the Tin Box,” is a supporting role. Not much is mentioned about him but through the story an outline can be drawn. </em>
<em></em>
<u>Explanation:</u>
James Thurber’s short story “The Princess and the Tin Box,” is written in the form a modern fable. The main character is the Princess who has just turned eighteen years old and spoilt with riches since childhood. The King or the father of the Princess has a minimal role to play. But from the story we can understand that the princess was very dear to him since she was a baby. He provided her with the best of things that included only gold, precious stones etc. All things below this standard was not even kept in the palace grounds. So he basically, kept his daughter lavishly and dependant on others with all the amenities.
In English, repeating words or phrases is referred to as anaphora. Anaphora is a rhetorical device in which sentences start with the same word or sequence of words. In the example given to us, anaphora is shown by the repetition of the word “hello.”
