Question

A sentence is divided into four parts. Choose the part that is/are grammatically incorrect
When \(\underline{\text{it became apparent }}\)to Clive that not one of the remaining jurors \(\underline{\text{were going}}\) to believe his \(\underline{\text{client’s}}\) alibi, he began to reconsider the District Attorney’s \(\underline{\text{offer}}\) of a plea bargain.

• A. it became apparent
• B. were going
• C. client’s
• D. offer

Hint:

Ensure subject-verb agreement when dealing with collective or singular subjects, particularly in cases like "not one of the jurors."

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

Step 1: The subject "not one of the remaining jurors" is singular, so the verb should be "was going" instead of "were going."
Step 2: "Were going" should be replaced with "was going" to maintain subject-verb agreement in the sentence.
