A singular subject joined by or/nor requires a a. singular verb.

The correct answer is A.

Subjects and verbs must agree with one another in number ( singular and plural ). If a subject is singular, the verb must also be singular, if the subject is plural, the verb must be plural too.

With compound subjects joined by <em>or/nor</em>, the verb agrees with the subject nearer to it.

<em>Neither the father nor the children go to the park today. </em>

children ( plural ) = verb go ( plural )

<em>Neither the children nor the father goes to the park today.</em>

father ( singular ) = verb goes ( singular )

Thrush and bush both have the same ush spelling at the end. Thrush is pronounced with a short u /uh/ sound. Whereas bush has a short /oo/ sound.


Bough and Plough both have the "ow" sound. Shrill and hill both have the short /i/ sound. Shed and bred both have the short /e/ sound.
