Explanation:

In the given sentences, the main thing to remember that will help us spot the error or chose the correct answer is to see the subject-verb agreement. This means that the number of the subject/noun is in sync or in agreement with the verb used with it.

The correct answers are as follows-

1. The police are prepared in case there is a riot.

Here, the noun "police" refers to the whole police as a group. So, it will take the plural verb form "are".

2. The poor are helped by government programs.

Here, the noun "poor" refers to the general population who are poor. So, the verb used will be "are".

3. Sensitivity to other people's feelings makes Giorgio a kind person.

Here, the subject is Giorgio, a singular noun. Thus, we will use the simple present form of the verb in the singular form "makes".

4. The news about the long-range effects of air pollution on the development of children's lungs is disturbing.

Here, the noun is "news" which is singular. So, the verb or helping verb "is" is used.

Read the excerpt below and answer the question.

katrin [286]

The tone of this excerpt is fear, disappointment, and uncertainty. Taherah Saffazadeh, the poet, is Iranian and the fear and disappointment that accompany having a girl for a baby stems from the society's poor treatment of women and celebration of men. Detailed description of action and emotion help convey these themes, the word choice associated with the announcement that she was a girl. The mother's "look of shame", the "choked voice" telling them it's a girl, the midwife trembling, these details are what create the mood and reinforce how somber everything around the birth became. The tone of uncertainty comes from the feeling that no one in the room quite knows what to do next or how to react properly.
