Answer:

Most of the team <u>B. plays</u> well.

Explanation:

The verb has to match the head of the noun phrase “Most of the team,” which it's “team.” This word is a collective noun, that is, a singular noun that refers to more than one person, animal, thing or concept. Thus, since it is a singular noun, its correct verb form is that in the third-person singular: “plays.”

The verb form “play,” on the other hand, is used to first-person singular and plural, second-person singular and plural and third-person plural nouns.

Most of the team PLAYS well.

A team is plural, not singular. If we were talking about one singular teammate, he would PLAY well, but since we are talking about more than one person, we throw that "s" on there!
