Sir,
Through the columns of your esteemed newspaper, I would like to draw the attention of the concerned authority on the lack of seriousness in the teachers regarding teaching. The teachers do not focus on explaining the chapters rather they emphasize students on mugging up things. In my school, XYZ public School, this issue is very common. The parents have already complained to the school authority but the complaint went into vain. I hope that through this piece of work, the issue would be soon looked up and necessary steps would be taken as soon as possible.
Thanking you in anticipation.

A linking verb is a verb that describes a subject, a linking verb connects a noun and a predicate.These verbs always link subjects to something that further describes the subject of the sentence.
A does not contain a linking verb, but it does contain a helping verb; "has". B does not contain a linking verb, but it does also contain a helping verb; "are" C doesn't contain a linking verb, but some might get this mixed up because is has the word have which is a linking verb, but in front of that word it says "could" indicating that it didn't happen. D does contain a linking verb "have been" this indicates that they've been feeling this way. <em>The hockey players</em> is the noun and<em> </em><em>anxious about the match is the </em>predicate.
