The part of a textbook that states the author's purpose is the Preface/Introduction.
I see you've already provided the answers. I will just add an explanation.
Answer:
1. The manner in which action is presented indicates verb mood.
2. Time of action is indicated by verb tense.
3. Whether the subject names the actor or the receiver is determined by voice.
Explanation:
The mood of a verb concerns the way it is expressed, the attitude of the speaker. For instance, if the speaker wishes to convey a fact, he will use the indicative mood. If he wishes to command or request, he will use the imperative mood.
Verb tense expresses a connection between the verb and the time when the action took place. If the speaker talks about something that happened yesterday, he will use the past tense. If he addresses something that will happen tomorrow, he will use the future tense.
Finally, voice expresses the relationship between the action described by the verb and the subject. If the subject is the one performing the action, we use the active voice. If the subject is the one suffering or receiving the action, we need to use the passive voice.

The answer im positve is b.?
The first person he encounters at Ingolstadt is Krempe, a professor of natural philosophy. This meeting is described as the work of an evil influence the "Angel of Destruction." The professor is astounded at the absurd and outdated science that Victor has read in the past, and tells him to begin his studies completely anew. At first, the narrator is indifferent to the idea of returning to science: he has developed a deep contempt for natural philosophy and its uses. This changes, however, when Victor attends a lecture given by a professor named Waldman. Victor is completely enraptured by the ideas of Waldman, who believes that scientists can perform miracles, acquire unlimited powers, and "mock the invisible world with its own shadows." He decides to return to the study of natural philosophy at once; he visits Professor Waldman the following day to tell him that he has found a disciple in Victor Frankenstein.
