A singular subject joined by or/nor requires a a. singular verb.

The correct answer is A.

Subjects and verbs must agree with one another in number ( singular and plural ). If a subject is singular, the verb must also be singular, if the subject is plural, the verb must be plural too.

With compound subjects joined by <em>or/nor</em>, the verb agrees with the subject nearer to it.

<em>Neither the father nor the children go to the park today. </em>

children ( plural ) = verb go ( plural )

<em>Neither the children nor the father goes to the park today.</em>

father ( singular ) = verb goes ( singular )

1. You can see through the comparison to a mountain, that the grandpa is tall and always there 'looming' (hovering) over the speaker. You can see that the speaker does not speak much around his grandpa, as he is "silent as a stone". 

2. These details show that the speaker is impressed by his grandpa and looks up to him the way a stone would look up to a mountain-it shows that he hopes one day he will grow to be like his grandpa. 

3. The theme of this poem is shown through the way the speaker looks at his grandpa and the shed. The shed needs more than paint because it is so old, which relates to his grandpa and the theme of growing older.
