Answer:

Verb agreement.

Explanation:

Punctuation marks are used for the following: to create pauses, flow, or rhythm within a sentence or a text. The way to do this is to use commas or periods to create pauses, commas or conjunctions to create flow, commas or colons to create rhythm, etc. However, one thing that punctuation cannot do is affect verb agreement. Verb agreement means that the subject and the predicate (verb) are in the same number: if the subject is singular, the verb will also be singular; if the subject is plural, so is the verb. This depends on the subject, not on punctuation.

The presence of an authoritarian government and strong censorship are realistic aspects of this story. On the other hand, Juan's attitude of censoring his letter is something that seems unreal and a nightmare.

We can arrive at this answer because:

The story takes place in a dictatorial government, where censorship is an attitude taken to control the population.
This kind of attitude is common in this type of government.
Within this story, Juan is unable to send letters to his girl.friend, as these letters are always intercepted and censured.

To prevent this from happening, Juan decides to work in the government's censorship department, to be able to send his letters. But he becomes so dedicated to the work that he censors his own letter without thinking twice.

This behavior is unrealistic and it seems like a nightmare to think that a government can control people to the point where they ignore their feelings and desires to maintain the control of the government.

Which verb agrees in number with its subject? Many if the runners _________________incredibly fast. A.are b.has c. Is d. Was

ruslelena [56]

Many of the runners ____ incredibly fast.
The subject is "many" and many is plural.
Has would be wrong because you need a linking verb (the predicate is an adjective)
"Is" would be wrong because the subject is plural and "is" corresponds to a singular subject.
"Was" is incorrect because "was" corresponds to a singular noun.
Therefore "are" would be correct because it is a linking verb that corresponds to a plural noun.
