The answer to your question would be that when a writer does not know who performed the action in a sentence, the writer can still write a grammatically correct sentence by using the passive voice. That is, the correct option would be B.

You can change the word order of the active sentences with a direct object for the subject to be no longer active, but acted upon by the verb or passive. Take A & B as examples:

a) Mary fed the dog (active sentence)

b) The dog was fed (passive sentence)

Only when each of the committee members ____ reading the instructions then can you ____ them to the hall.

The option through which the subject and verb agree are "finish/take"

A verb is one of the parts of speech in English language and it can be defined as any word that describes an action, occurrence, or state of existence. Thus, a verb is an action or doing word.

Some examples of a verb are dance, sing, walk, play, run, sit,  clap, cheer, read, etc.

A subject can be defined as the person, thing, idea or place that performs an action in a sentence.

On a related note, a subject-verb agreement is a situation in which there exist a relationship between the predicate and subject of a sentence.

This ultimately implies that, a subject and a verb must agree either in terms of number or tense usage.

In this context, the most appropriate verb to use in completing the sentence is finish (present tense) because its subject (crowd) is singular (each of the committee members). Also, the latter part of the sentence should be completed using the verb take (present tense).  

<em>In conclusion, the subject and verb in this scenario agrees when finish and take are used respectively.</em>

Read the detail about Clara Barton.
zhenek [66]

Answer:

A.

Explanation:

I think A is the right answer because yearbooks don't really go into too much detail. 'Try to help others' is kind of vague in a yearbook style.

The first gap is best filled with "resembled" (Sebastian comments here that many people believed that his sister was similar to him in the looks)

The second gap is "remembrance" - he means here that he cries after her (the more refers to more salt water, that is his tears)
