An easy one to start with:
Grasslike plant in small border (5)
Two parts, looking at the second the reference to “small” often indicates the abbreviation “s”. If you add “edge” which is a border to the s, you get “sedge” and what do you know that is a grasslike plant.
Another slightly harder one:
Surprise caused by a tanker originally entering channel (7)
Here the first part is the first word, with the rest making up the second part. So the solution is a word that means “surprise”
The word “originally” suggests the first letter – in this case of “tanker” – so a which is mentioned and t in conjunction with a word meaning channel will be the answer. A “sound” is a natural channel – so you end up with “astound”.
