Sentence 9: The sleeping bag and its two accessories (ground cloth and mattress) are next on the list of basics.

If you rewrote sentence 9 beginning with Next on the list of basics

the next word(s) should be:

1. the sleeping bag
2. its two accessories
3. ground cloth and mattress
4. are
5. is

A plural verb is needed since the new subject, the sleeping bag and its two accesories, is plural.
