Verb Test 46

The subject of this sentence is 'The United States' which is the name of a country. So, it is a singular noun and will take a singular verb. Hence, the answer is 'has'.

Taking into account the tense of the second sentence, it can be asserted that the first sentence is in the simple present form. This logic eliminates options C and D. Since the subject, jeans, is a third person plural number, the following verb will not have an -s or -es added to it, thus making option A incorrect. Therefore, option B is the correct option.

When a subject is singular, the verb that follows is also singular, and when the subject is plural, the verb is also plural. This agreement between the subject and verb is called the subject-verb agreement. In the sentence, "I think the blue ones" is the subject, where 'ones' is the main subject, it's plural, hence we use a plural verb. Singular verbs generally end with s, whereas plural verbs do not end with an s. For example, in 'The blue jacket goes better with these pants', 'the blue jacket' is singular and so is the verb 'goes' that ends with s. Here the subject is plural, hence 'go' will be used, 'go' is a plural verb, so option A is correct and B is incorrect. 'Were having gone' is grammatically incorrect, 'having' is a gerund or a participle, and 'gone' is the past participle of the verb 'go', as the phrase is grammatically incorrect, option C is wrong. 'Has gone' is irrelevant here, because 'has' is a singular verb whereas the subject is plural, hence option D is incorrect.

When two subjects are connected by 'as well as,' the verb is in accordance with the first subject which in this case is 'gold.' So, the verb will be 'has' as gold is an uncountable noun and takes a singular verb. Option B) 'has' is the correct option here since it agrees with our subject in the sentence 'gold'. 'As well as silver' is a phrase which is not a part of the subject. So, we can eliminate option A) 'have' and option D) 'are' as they're plural in nature and do not agree with our singular subject. Option C) 'is' is incorrect because it does not fit grammatically with the given sentence as the next word is 'fallen' which is in the past participle form and we need an auxiliary to go with that. In this case, 'has' fits grammatically with 'fallen' and also agrees with our singular subject.

Option B is the correct answer. Since the pronoun they is third person in the plural form, the following verb will also be in the plural form, i.e., without an added -s or -es, as shown by Option A. The sentence appears to be in the simple present. Thus, Options C and D are incorrect for they are the past and present participle forms respectively. Thus, Options A,C and D are incorrect. 

The sentence mentions that the event or incident happened 'that night' which means it is in the past. So, we can eliminate options B) and C). This leaves the options A) and D). For the word 'everyone', we need to use a singular verb form. Therefore, the correct answer is option D) was.

Has is used with a third singular person ("he", "she", "it", or a noun) i.e. when the subject is singular but it is neither the person who is writing/speaking ("I") or the person who's reading/listening ("you").

'Stolen' indicates that the activity occurred in the past. So, options C) and D) can be eliminated. The phrase 'one or the other' can be considered to be singular so the correct answer is option A) has.

The subject of this sentence is 'a lot of money'. Since 'lot' is singular, the verb has to be singular. The answer will be 'was'. 

A distance or amount, when considered as a single unit, is treated as a singular subject. So, the verb will also be singular, i.e 'is'.
