Wait what..? What’s the question?
Answer:
The error with subject-verb agreement is highlighted below:
On the basketball court, nothing fazes Martina. She has a singular focus: driving up the score for her team.
Explanation:
<u>Subject-verb agreement refers to the verb adjusting itself to the subject. If the subject is plural, the verb is also plural. If the subject is singular, the verb must also be singular. </u>Take a look at the examples below:
- Leslie goes jogging every morning. → Leslie - singular subject; goes - singular verb.
- They go swimming every Saturday. → They - plural subject; go - plural verb.
In the sentence we are analyzing here, there is an error with the subject-verb agreement. The subject is "nothing", which is singular, but the verb is "faze", which is plural. To correct this error, we must add -s to "faze", since verbs referring to the third person singular in the present tense need -s, -es, or -ies.
<u>The corrected sentence is:</u>
<u>On the basketball court, nothing </u><u>fazes</u><u> Martina.</u>
Because (1) there is a possibility that her classmates said her the wrong score or (2) there is a problem in her ears.
A or D is one the correct answer because its show context clues about how the Asthma can affect people.
