Answer :

This question is based on phrases.

Cambridge English Dictionary defines 'phrase' as 'a group of words that is part of, rather than the whole of, a sentence.'

Cambridge English Dictionary defines 'noun phrase' as 'A noun phrase consists of a noun or pronoun, which is called the head, and any dependent words before or after the head. Dependent words give specific information about the head. In a noun phrase, dependent words before the head are either determiners (e.g. the, my, some) or premodifiers (e.g. adjectives). Dependent words after the head are either complements or postmodifiers.'

In the given sentence 'My books have been stolen.', 'My books' is the noun phrase.

Cambridge English Dictionary defines 'verb phrase' as 'A verb phrase consists of a main verb alone, or a main verb plus any modal and/or auxiliary verbs. The main verb always comes last in the verb phrase.'

In the given sentence, 'My books have been stolen ', 'have been stolen ' is the verb phrase.
