B is the correct answer. The verb 'to be’ is a linking verb as it links the subject with a an adjectival predicate that describes the subject. In this case, it links Pahom with the state of being unhappy.

The correct answer is B, as the verb to be (in this case, "is") acts as a linking verb in the sentence.

The linking verb is a type of verb (to be) that some languages possess to construct the so-called nominal preaching of the subject of a sentence: the subject joins with this verb a compulsory complement called attribute that usually determines some property, state or equivalence thereof, for example.
