the page I type doesn't show on citation when I cite a book on Ms office Word

    That's citation style dependent. What style do you use?

    I assume you're using the numeric style.
    What you're typing in here in the page field (actually locator in CSL) is for the in-text part. Numeric styles often do not have this. In any case, this would be added like so: [1,p.30].

    Your source, the Kolas A. source, is a book. A book does not need the "page" field since a book is a book, from its first to last page.
    For book CHAPTERS this makes sense as it's a section of a book, hence you can specify the chapters pages where it appears in the book.
