Neither of the boys(are) talking well.​

Hi!

Explanation:

Neither of boys or girls are talking well

b. brooks wrote about the same type of neighborhood in which she grew up.

i believe the answer is: b. mr. head had a long, tube-like face with a rounded open jaw and a short depressed nose.

this is because in the un-revised sentence it said that mr. heads face was long and tube-like, and he had a rounded open jaw. this is not a very grammatically correct because of how it seems to drag on with the and, replaced with, with, makes it sound more fluent in the description.
