Explanation:
Subject-Verb Agreement:
- In English grammar, the subject of a sentence must agree with the verb in number.
- "He" is a singular pronoun, so it must be paired with a singular verb.
Correct Sentence:
- The correct sentence is "He is going to the store."
- In this sentence, the singular subject "He" is paired with the singular verb "is going."
Incorrect Options:
- Option a) "He are going to the store." is incorrect because "are" is a plural verb, which does not agree with the singular subject "He."
- Option b) "He go to the store." is incorrect because the verb "go" does not agree with the singular subject "He."
- Option d) "He goes to the store." is incorrect because "goes" is used for the third person singular subject "He," but the sentence is in the future tense, so "is going" is more appropriate.
