Subject-verb agreement means that the subject of a sentence and the verb must agree in number. That is to say, both of them need to be singular or plural. In sentence D, the subject of the sentence is "the man" and the verb is "have lived". As the sentence refers to one man, the verb should be "has lived" in order to agree in number with the subject.
