Answer 1

Answer:

5. The employee guided a long line of grocery carts, pushing them through the parking lot toward the store.

6. The sign over the door of the ironworks shop hung from two sturdy chains.

Explanation:

A verb is a word that expresses an action or a state. It is part of the predicate and helps introduce the information about the subject. It agrees with the subject, that is, if the subject is plural, the verb is also plural.

In sentence 5, we have a verb in its past tense form "guided" and another one in its present participle form "pushing". They both refer to the subject "the employee". In sentence 6 we have a verb also in its past form "hung", and its subject is "the sign". All underlined verbs express actions.
