Explanation:

To answer the first exercise, all we need to do is look for the verb that agrees with the subject and that, and the same time, makes sense with the general context. For instance, if we had answered "A proverb contain simple and colorful language," we would have been wrong due to lack of subject-verb agreement (proverb is singular, but contain is plural).

As for the second activity, we need to correct run-on sentences, which are sentences where two independent clauses were joined incorrectly. For numbers 5 and 6, the sentences received a coordinating conjunction, which transformed them into compound sentences. Numbers 7 and 8 were punctuated in a way that separated the different clauses.
