The simple subjects in each sentence are the following:

11. Often, a mask (was, were) made for ritual dances.

12. Natural forces (has, have) been the subjects of art from early times on.

13. Also, pictures (has, have) often represented religious beliefs.

14. Art (does, do) represent various aspects of the daily life and customs of a society.

Now, let's underline the correct verb form and label which type of verb they are:

11. Often, a mask (was, were) made for ritual dance. - AUX

12. Natural forces (has, have) been the subjects of art from early times on. - AUX

13. Also, pictures (has, have) often represented religious beliefs. - AUX

14. Art (does, do) represent various aspects of the daily life and customs of a society. - AUX

We can define a simple subject as the main word in the subject, the one that establishes a relationship with the verb. Let's use the subject from sentence 11 as an example: the complete subject is "a mask", but the most important word out of those is "mask". This is the word we are talking about, the one that is the topic of the sentence.

As seen in the answer above, all the underlined verbs were auxiliary verbs. Auxiliary verbs accompany the main verbs. While the main verbs express action, the auxiliary verbs help convey tense, emphasis, possibility, questions, etc. Notice that we choose the verb to agree with the subject: singular-singular ("mask was"), plural-plural ("pictures have").

This question, in conclusion, concerned the relationship between a subject and a verb.

Once you have chosen a topic, you must conduct research in order to write your paper accurately. However, if your paper is a personal narrative, for example, you do not need to conduct research. In this case, your next step is to create an outline so that you can organize your paper. If it is a paper that needs research, you cannot develop an outline until you have researched, learned and understood your topic.

Describe how the Mary Rowland's experience during her captivity is a metaphor for a devout Puritan society

stepan [7]

A prominent theme in Rowlandson's narrative (and Puritan writing in general) is the sense of fear and revulsion she expresses in regards to the wilderness. When taken captive after the attack on Lancaster, Rowlandson was forced to face a threatening environment and endure the treatment of her Native American captors, people whom she refers to as "barbarous creatures," "murderous wretches" "heathen," "ravenous beasts," and "hell-hounds."
