**Explanation:**
The correct sentence among the given options is **"Ram and Sita are playing chess."**
**Subject-Verb Agreement:**
In English grammar, subject-verb agreement refers to the correspondence between a subject and its verb in a sentence. It means that the verb must agree with the subject in terms of number and person.
**Explanation of each option:**
a) Ram and Sita plays chess.
- In this sentence, the subject "Ram and Sita" is plural because it refers to two people. However, the verb "plays" is singular, which does not agree with the subject. The correct verb form for a plural subject is "play." So, this sentence is incorrect.
b) Ram and Sita has played.
- In this sentence, the subject "Ram and Sita" is plural. However, the verb "has played" is singular, which does not agree with the subject. The correct verb form for a plural subject is "have played." So, this sentence is incorrect.
c) Ram and Sita was playing chess.
- In this sentence, the subject "Ram and Sita" is plural. However, the verb "was playing" is singular, which does not agree with the subject. The correct verb form for a plural subject is "were playing." So, this sentence is incorrect.
d) Ram and Sita are playing chess.
- In this sentence, the subject "Ram and Sita" is plural. The verb "are playing" is also plural, which agrees with the subject. So, this sentence is correct.
**Conclusion:**
Among the given options, the correct sentence is "Ram and Sita are playing chess." This sentence demonstrates subject-verb agreement as the plural subject "Ram and Sita" is correctly paired with the plural verb "are playing."

Sarita Singh answered |
The statement has two clauses joined by the coordinating conjunction 'nor'. The first half tells us that he has never told a lie till the present time, so this part is expressed in present perfect tense 'never has told'. The second half talks about the future and tells us that he will never do it in the future either, so it is expressed in simple future tense i.e 'nor ever will tell a lie'.

Arjun Ghosh answered |
Understanding the Future Continuous Tense
The sentence "She will be arriving tomorrow to meet her husband" is an example of the Future Continuous tense. Let's delve into why this is the correct choice.
Definition of Future Continuous Tense
- The Future Continuous tense describes actions that will be ongoing at a specific time in the future.
- It is formed using "will be" + the present participle (verb + -ing).
Analysis of the Sentence
- **"She will be arriving"**: This part indicates that the action of arriving will happen in the future.
- **"tomorrow"**: This time expression clearly situates the event in the future, reinforcing the use of Future Continuous.
- **"to meet her husband"**: This is the purpose of her arrival, but the focus remains on the ongoing action of arriving.
Comparison with Other Tenses
- **Present Continuous**: Used for actions happening right now (e.g., "She is arriving").
- **Past Indefinite**: Indicates completed actions in the past (e.g., "She arrived").
- **Past Continuous**: Describes ongoing actions in the past (e.g., "She was arriving").
Conclusion
The sentence clearly illustrates the Future Continuous tense through its structure and context. It signifies a planned action that will occur and continue in the future, making option 'A' the correct choice. Understanding these tense forms helps in mastering English grammar effectively!

Ishaan Chawla answered |
Understanding the Correct Verb Form
To determine the correct verb form to fill in the blank in the sentence "For dinner last night we ______ fish and chips," we need to analyze the context provided.
Context of the Sentence
- The phrase "last night" indicates that the action took place in the past.
- Therefore, we need a verb form that corresponds with past tense.
Examining the Options
- a) are having: This is present continuous tense, used for actions happening now. It does not fit since the action was in the past.
- b) had: This is the simple past tense of the verb "have." It correctly indicates that the action (having fish and chips) occurred last night.
- c) will have: This is the future tense, indicating an action that will happen later. It does not fit the context of something that already happened.
- d) have had: This is the present perfect tense, which refers to actions that occurred at an unspecified time before now. Again, it does not match the past context of "last night."
Conclusion
- The only option that correctly fits the context of the sentence is b) had. It accurately reflects the past event, making it the right choice.
In summary, for a past event like having dinner "last night," the correct verb form is "had."

Explanation:
The original sentence "It is more than four years since I see you" uses the present simple tense "see," which is incorrect in this context. The correct verb form should be the present perfect "have seen" to indicate an action that started in the past and continues up to the present moment.
Correct Answer:
a) have seen
Therefore, the correct sentence should be: "It is more than four years since I have seen you."

Nilotpal Nambiar answered |
Explanation:
The given sentence is: "She is ill for three days."
The verb in the sentence is "is" which is referring to the present tense. However, the sentence is talking about an action that started in the past and continues in the present. Therefore, we need to replace the verb "is" with a verb that expresses this continuous action.
Option A: was - This verb is in the past tense and does not convey the continuous nature of the action. It implies that she was ill in the past but may not be ill anymore.
Option B: is being - This verb is in the present continuous tense, but it does not convey the past duration of three days. It implies that she is currently in the process of being ill.
Option C: has been - This verb is in the present perfect tense, which is used to indicate an action that started in the past and continues in the present. "Has been" implies that she has been ill for the past three days and is still ill at present.
Option D: will be - This verb is in the future tense and does not convey the past duration of three days. It implies that she will be ill in the future, but does not indicate anything about the past.
Therefore, the correct answer is option C: has been.

Therefore, the correct answer is option C: has been.

Varun Kapoor answered |
Here, 'have not seen' in the present perfect tense is correct because it is used to indicate an action which started in the past and has continued up until now.
'Does not see' is grammatically incorrect.
'Am not seeing' in present continuous is incorrect because it implies an action going on at the time of speaking.
'Will not see' in future simple is incorrect because it indicates an action, condition or circumstance which has not taken place as yet.
'Does not see' is grammatically incorrect.

Varun Kapoor answered |
The given sentence states a condition. It talks about an action which might happen in the future.
We use the simple present tense in the if-clause and simple future tense in the main clause—that is, the clause that expresses the likely outcome. This is how we indicate that under a certain condition (as expressed in the if-clause), a specific result will likely happen in the future.
Thus, the complete sentence must be,
If the situation permits, I will surely come.
Thus option D is the correct answer.
Options A, B, C are incorrect as they are not in the simple present tense.

Comes is the correct word to fit in the blank. The subject here, i.e. brother is singular. Thus, a singular verb should be used.
The action though talks about an incident that is happening in the present.
Example: Here, comes your birthday cake.
Thus, the word/verb 'comes' is used.

The given sentence needs perfect participle. The perfect participle indicates completed action. A perfect participle is formed by putting the present participle (having) in front of the past participle.
Option C is correct as it contains perfect participle.
Whereas option A changes the entire meaning of the given sentence which is incorrect because the work is meant to be finished at the office; option B doesn't make sense; option D doesn't construct the proper meaning of the sentence as well. Therefore these three options are incorrect.
