Answer: Marlo, the oldest in the family, often reads to her little brother and sister.

I'm sorry your question was not answered sooner. I doubt you will still need this answer but for the sake of others I went ahead to answer.
When a subject and a verb are said to agree, it means that the verb is the same number as the subject. This means that if the subject is in plural, the verb must be in plural as well and if the subject is singular, the verb must be singular as well.
<u><em>''Marlo''</em></u><em> </em> is a singular subject and the verb that would complement this is ''<em><u>reads'' </u></em><em> </em>because it is a singular number as well.

Answer:
B. He wanted to make the poem more concise and direct.
Explanation:
Ezra Pound wrote a 30-line poem where he narrated his experience in a Paris metro station but he discarded this version because he did not like it.
Much later, he again tried narrating his experience, this time making the narration shorter than the first, but he again discarded it.
Finally, after reading Japanese hiakus, Mr. Pound finally wrote his experience in a two-line version that has now become immensely popular because of its length.
So, he reduced his poem from a 30-lined one to two lines because he wanted to make the poem more concise and direct.
