Which of the following sentences has a subject/verb agreement problem?

English

Let us dissect each sentence to tell which of these does not follow the rules for subject-verb agreement.

A.) The subject is 'each of the students' while the verb is 'is'. More particularly, the verb refers to 'each' which is singular. So, this is correct.

B.) The subject is 'student' while the verb is 'were'. The word 'were' is the paste tense of are which is used for a plural subject. But since student is singular, then the verb should have been 'was'. So, this is incorrect.

C.) The subject is 'my dog and my cat' which pertains to two nouns, thus it is plural. It agrees with its plural verb 'are'.

D.) The subject is 'Tom' while the verb is 'does'. Both are intended for singular use. So, this is correct.

Therefore, the answer to this is letter B.

sladkih [1.3K]

<span>The scene you are referring to in _Walk Two Moons_ occurs in Chapter 23, “The Badlands.”  When Sal’s mother says she wants to visit Idaho in order for her cousin, whom she has not seen in 15 years, to tell her what she is really like, she means that she wants to be told (or even reminded) what she was like before she was a mother and before she was married.  It seems as if she wants to be reminded of the person she feels she no longer is.  And, to come into contact with one whose last memory of her is of whom she used to be is why she wants to go to Idaho.</span>
