Test: Subject-Verb - 2 - Class 9 MCQ

The subject-verb agreement is based on gender, number, and tense. The verb must agree with the subject in terms of these factors.

The subject "dogs" is plural, but the verb "bark" is singular, resulting in subject-verb disagreement.

In this sentence, the subject "Neither my friend nor I" is treated as a singular entity because it is joined by the coordinating conjunction "nor." When two singular subjects are joined by neither/nor, the verb should be in the singular form. Therefore, "is" is the correct verb form to agree with the subject.

When the subject is "one of" followed by a plural noun, the verb should agree with the noun following "of." In this case, "boys" is plural, but "one" is singular.

The subject "herd" is singular, so the verb should be singular as well.

The subject "Every student, as well as the teacher" is singular, so the verb "completes" agrees with it.

When using "either...or," the verb should agree with the subject closer to it. In this case, "cat" is singular, so the verb "eats" is correct.

The subject "committee" is singular, so the verb "is" agrees with it.

The subject "My favorite book" is singular, so the verb "is" agrees with it.
