Answer: The sentence that has a subject-verb agreement error is sentence 3.

Explanation: Rules of subject-verb agreement state that, when "neither...nor" is used in a sentence and both subjects are singular, a singular verb must be used. However, when "neither...nor" is used in a sentence and one subject is singular and the other one is plural, the verb must agree in number with the subject that is nearest to this verb. In that way<u>, sentence 3, which includes "neither...nor", has a subject-verb agreement error because a singular verb was used, even though the subject that is nearest to the verb is plural ("parents")</u>. Therefore, a plural verb ("think") should have been used to give place to subject-verb agreement.
