Excitement between the two groups have risen after the election. is this correct

English
1 answer:
Mashutka [201]3 years ago

Answer:

The subject-verb agreement is wrong. The correct sentence would be:

- Excitement between the two groups has risen after the election.

Explanation:

<u>If we ask the verb a simple question, we can find the subject: "What has risen after the election? Excitement between the two groups." Even though the answer is long, the simple subject itself is comprised of just one singular word: "excitement". This is the most important word, the one to which the verb refers. We can even remove the words that come after it, and the effect or meaning will be the same: "Excitement has risen after the election."</u>

The problem with "Excitement between the two groups have risen after the election" is that "have" is agreeing with "groups". However, as seen above, "groups" is not the most important word in the subject. Therefore, the verb should not agree with it.

Can someone help me with Exercise 2?
ch4aika [34]
Hi,

For Exercise 2: Chris often thinks how different his life would become if he 2) were more adventurous. He's rather a cautious man who 3) takes risks only provided that they 4) wouldn't unsettle his life. Yet he sometimes feels that if he 5) made braver decisions, his life 6) would change for the better, although deep down he knows that there's  not much of a likelihood of this happening. For example, three years ago they offered him a job in Africa. If he 7) accepted the offer, he 8) would have had to live in Africa for two years and he 9) would enjoy an enormous increase in his salary as well. But Chris is not the type of person who will give up the security of his home unless he 10) felt even more secure about his new circumstances. Only if that job offered to him 11) was close to home, 12) he would have taken it. His friends try to convince him that he 13) would discover the fun in his life if he 14) decided to be a little more daring. Yet Chris says that as long as he 15) remains happy with the way things are, he 16) will not be making any drastic changes to the way he lives.
