Explanation: The task involves completing sentences with linking verbs. Linking verbs connect the subject to a subject complement, such as a noun or adjective, that describes or identifies the subject. The most common linking verbs are forms of "to be" (am, is, are, was, were, etc.). In each sentence, the subject is being described or identified, so a form of "to be" is appropriate. For example, "We are parents" uses "are" to link "we" to "parents." Similarly, "She is an amazing woman" uses "is" to link "she" to "an amazing woman." The rule in the image confirms that "is" should be used when referring to one, which applies to "she" and "it."
