The answer is no C because "anxious" is a linking verb

Diana Frank · Answer 2

The children are playing hockey in the frozen pond.

"Are" here is the linking verb because it does not show an action, but rather tells something about the subject. In this sentence, it tells more about the children that they are playing hockey.
