Answer:

Your answer would be A.

Explanation:

Sentence A has an error in subject-verb agreement. Subject-verb agreement refers to the fact that the subject and the verb in a sentence must agree in number. In other words, they both must be singular or they both must be plural. In the sentence above, the NP subject "official procedures" is plural, so the verb should also be plural, but it is singular "calls". The -s indicates that the verb is in the third person singular. Consequently, the subject and the verb do not agree in number, making the sentence ungrammatical (see 1).

”They had what was their own and coveted not what others had produced”
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

1. These words were said by the old grandfather to the king.

2. The name of the lesson is "A Grain as Big as A Hen's Egg" written by Leo Tolstoy.

3. The word "covet" means to envy or be jealous of something that others have. Wanting or desiring what belongs to others is what "covet" means.

Explanation:

The given quote is a simple explanation that the oldest grandfather gave the king. He said that in his time, no one has any feeling of jealousy for what belongs to others because there was nothing that belongs to a particular person. Everyone shares their produce and also openly/ freely gave to others. As such, everyone was happy with their lives and has no need to 'covet'.

1. These words were said by the oldest grandfather to the king.

2. The name of the lesson is "A Grain as Big as A Hen's Egg" written by Leo Tolstoy.

3. The word "covet" means to envy or be jealous of something that others have. Wanting or desiring what belongs to others is what "covet" means.
