Yes, I'm sure. Let's break down the sentences:
1. **The cattle in the field is huge!**
- "Cattle" is a plural noun, so the correct verb should be "are," not "is."
- Corrected: "The cattle in the field are huge!"
2. **The island visited by the travelers are warm.**
- "Island" is a singular noun, so the verb should be "is," not "are."

3. **My collection of stamps is extensive.**
- "Collection" is a singular noun, and the verb "is" agrees with it. This sentence is correct.
4. **The books at the library is very helpful.**
