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.

On January 16, 1917, in a clear attempt to convince the Mexican government to help Germany in the war, Arthur Zimmermann, the Ge
Zanzabum

Answer:   U-boats were designed to make sure that messages being transported were secured.

Explanation: With the question and answer choices, it is a bit confusing at first. We see that, it’s talking about implications over explicit actualities, so we can remove the first and last choice about the message being important, while Zimmermann was looking for help. Both are explicitly stated in the excerpt, so it gives us a detailed account for why he was asking Mexico to assist Germany. It was not that stated that Mexico was expecting the message, and it was not hinted, since Germany is stated to only have gone through proper channels. They are trying to make sure they don't get caught, but one side is unaware of what is occurring. That leaves the U-boat choice, which seems like an accurate, implied statement from what is given. Nothing was suggested about the U-boat other than its level of transportation and method of delivery, but it is enough to infer. U-boats are stated to be for diplomatic channels and have to take certain routes, so the audience can think of its secrecy and security without being told.

Answer:

I understand that you need to make budget cuts for next year, but you "(should not)" cut funding from the swim team. Four "(members)" made it to the state championships this year, and I am sure you remember that Stacy won first place in diving! Publicity from attending state meets is good for our school and motivates alumni "(to donate)" to the booster club. In addition, the swim team provides "(much-needed)"  exercise to an increasingly inactive student body. Without the swim team, we would all be stuck at home playing video games!

"(Sincerely)"
