Subject Verb and Pronoun Agreement (Difficult)

It should read "page after page of the Gita 'was' read". When we refer to individual things such as pages, we must use the singular verb 'was'.

The subject of the sentence is safety and hence, we need the singular verb 'was' rather than 'were'. The nurses and attendants in this care are the objects fo the sentence. Hence, option 4 is correct.

 Option 4 should be rewritten as "somebody else's". 

The subject is 'the shipment of supplies of raw materials' which is a singular phrase (the head noun is 'shipment'). Therefore, the verb must be singular 'was delayed' not plural 'were delayed'. This is a subject-verb agreement error where a long noun phrase with a prepositional phrase incorrectly uses a plural verb.

Since the subject is 'facilities' we must use the plural verb 'are'.

Here' we must use "make up" since we are talking about groups of tissue. Since the subject is plural (groups of...) we must use the plural verb.

Cupid is one specific Roman god (singular), so the verb must be singular 'was represented' not plural 'were represented'. This is a subject-verb agreement error. The phrase 'one of the ancient Roman gods' is just additional information about Cupid and doesn't make him plural.

(invites) In case of 'as well as', 'along with', 'with', the verb connects with the first subject (minister).

"The rest" is idiomatic of 'many'. Hence, we must use the plural verb 'are'.

 'One' should be followed by it own possessive, one's.

 The apostrophe must be eliminated in the word "it's". 'It's's is the contraction of 'it is' and thus out of context. We would write 'its' instead to indicate ownership.

Since it is a final exam, it will be one test only. Hence, it should be "The final exam, an essay test, will be given during the last week of classes."

 We must change it to 'you are responsible'.

'Between' is used for comparing two things, while 'among' is used for comparing three or more things. When talking about 'various clones of the same species', this implies multiple clones (more than two), so 'among' would be more appropriate than 'between'. This is a usage error in preposition selection.

The primary subject is 'the captain' and this means we must use the singular verb 'was' in the sentence.

 The subject of the sentence is 'consequences', thus we must use the plural form of the verb 'were'. 

 they (job opportunities). We must use the word "they" to indicate what is lost, which is 'job opportunities'.

'News' is a singular mass noun (uncountable noun) even though it ends in 's'. It requires a singular verb 'is' not plural 'are'. The correct sentence should be 'There is no news today' not 'There are no news today'. This is a common error with nouns that look plural but are grammatically singular.

'Underlying' is a singular adjective form, and the noun it modifies is 'aerodynamics' (singular field). The verb should be 'is' not 'are'. Additionally, 'motions' should be 'motion' to match the singular subject 'laws'. The correct sentence is 'Underlying aerodynamics and all other branches of theoretical mechanics IS the laws of MOTION developed in the seventeenth century.' There are actually two errors, but the most critical one is in part D with 'motions' being incorrect.

When comparing quantities using 'as much...as', the noun should be singular 'fabric' not plural 'fabrics'. The phrase 'as much fabric' refers to an uncountable quantity, while 'as many fabrics' would refer to countable types. The correct structure is 'as much fabric in a few seconds as it once took workers weeks to produce'. This is a usage error with quantifiers and countable vs. uncountable nouns.

The verb phrase 'make different' is missing its object. The correct structure should be 'make IT different' or 'make THEM different' (referring back to the giraffe's long neck and legs). As written, 'make different' is grammatically incomplete - you cannot 'make different' without specifying what is being made different. This is a sentence structure error.

The sentence says 'elements that are often represented as symbol'. Since 'elements' is plural, the noun should also be plural 'symbols'. Multiple elements are represented by multiple symbols, not a single symbol. The correct phrase should be 'represented as symbols'. This is a number agreement error between the noun and its modifier.

The error is in part (C). The pronoun 'their' is incorrect because 'category' is a singular noun. The correct pronoun should be 'its' or 'the' to refer back to the singular antecedent 'category'. Parts (A), (B), and (D) are grammatically correct.

The error is in part (D). The pronoun 'their' is incorrect because 'control of fire' is singular (abstract concept). The correct pronoun should be 'its' to refer back to the singular antecedent. The phrase 'the time, place, and mode of its origin' refers to the origin of fire control.

The error is in part (C). The verb 'has' should be 'have' because the subject is 'forms' (plural). The correct phrase should be 'forms of life that have not yet been discovered'. This is a subject-verb agreement error where a plural subject takes a singular verb.

The error is in part (D). The pronoun 'their' is incorrect because 'Magnesium' is a singular metal. The correct pronoun should be 'its' to refer back to magnesium. The sentence discusses magnesium's lightweight property as an advantage among engineering materials.

The error is in part (C). The pronoun 'their' is incorrect because the subject is 'One' (singular indefinite pronoun). The correct pronoun should be 'one's' to maintain consistency with the subject. The sentence states that a person can only survive without water for about ten days because most of their body consists of water.

The correct answer is (C). The phrase 'there is score of potential area' has multiple errors: (1) 'there is' should be 'there are' with plural 'areas', (2) 'score' in the sense of 'many' should be 'scores' (plural), and (3) 'area' should be plural 'areas'. Option C corrects all three issues with 'there are scores of potential areas'.

The error is in part (B). The pronoun 'their' is incorrect because 'The Grey Wolf' is a singular species name. The correct pronoun should be 'its' to refer back to the singular antecedent. The sentence discusses the species being reintroduced into its native habitat.

The correct answer is (B). The subject 'Westminster Abbey' is a singular building name, so it requires the singular verb 'stands' (not 'stand'). Additionally, when referring to specific buildings, we typically use the name without 'the'. Option B correctly uses 'stands' with the building name.

The correct answer is (C). Option A has unnecessary 'an' before 'arm's length'. Option B misses specificity about what 'it' refers to. Option D uses 'these' which is awkward. Option E has 'arm's length' without 'an'. Option C correctly specifies 'this nexus' (referring to the underworld connection) and uses 'an arm's length' appropriately. The idiom is 'keep someone at arm's length'.

The correct answer is (E). With 'none of' as the subject, the verb should agree with the noun in the prepositional phrase. 'Pottery' is an uncountable noun (mass noun) when referring to the material or craft, so it requires singular 'was' and singular 'pottery'. Options A-D incorrectly use 'potteries' (which treats it as countable) or incorrect verbs.
