Could you please look at a pic?
I came across this book and I think if I memorize these sentences, it will help improve my vocabulary.
But there is one thing that concerns me. They say that this book is for improving reading skills and I’m afraid if these sentences don't sound natural when I talk to a native speaker.
I want to know your thoughts about this.
Can I memorize them, would it help for improving my speaking skills, or would it be a waste of time?

It's normal English but tends toward being scholarly, or formal. It would definitely be good to be able to understand them. Whether you would use such a sentence yourself might depend on whether you're just talking to friends or writing an article.

It is all normal English but I would make a few points: the word “perverse” is very rarely used especially in spoken English. Also I would not say “there stands a clock tower” I would just say “there is a clock tower by the building”. Stands is correct it just isn’t often needed in this context, it is more usually used for people not buildings.

They are beautiful for a narrative. You can use them in your conversation when you describe something.

The expressions look fine in general. However, the endings are for writing only. You need to change the endings if you want to use them in conversations such as -요, 와요, 올 거예요, 같아요, 뒤따라요.
