The correct answer is D. Humans often allow suffering to go unheeded or ignored. "Musée des Beaux Arts" (French for "Museum of Fine Arts") is a poem written by W. H. Auden. Auden observes that the ‘Old Masters’, understood the nature of suffering and its ‘human position’: it means that no matter the intensity or momentousness of the experience to the person undergoing it, there were people in the surrounding vicinity who were indifferent to, or even ignorant of, what was taking place.

I'm not sure what the lesson is, but the answer that makes sense the most is number. Number because most lessons in subject-verb agreement concerns the singularity and plurality of the subject at hand
