 Case of simple present tense and subject is singular so verb used will also be singular

When a number and unit form a compound adjective before a noun, they must be hyphenated. The unit remains singular in hyphenated compound adjectives (e.g., forty-foot, ten-year, five-mile). Forty-feet would only be correct as a noun phrase after the article (a well of forty feet).

The blind refers to a generic group of people ...thus, it takes a plural verb.

 "have" is plural. Hence, we will use plural "trousers".

 "Beggars" is plural. Hence, "alms" is correct usage.

This is case of simple present tense and "a house" is singular. Hence, we will take singular verb "outskirts"

The subject is Nothing but peak over peak (peak after peak), which is singular because it refers to a single phenomenon or arrangement. The verb must agree with the singular subject, so appears (singular) is correct rather than appear (plural).

 not only but also always follow second subject. Since in the given sentence 2nd subject is singular so 2 is correct.

The correct option is (2).

Option (3) is correct. We use ‘at’ with ‘night’.

I am fed up of waiting for rain to come.

‘More’ is the correct answer because a comparison between the money made by cricketers and the money made by badminton players is given here.
