Question 9 • VT-SAT-Reading and Writing

Which sentence is written correctly?

Answer
A
Chase and McKay is visiting from Texas.
B
Milo’s puppies are still with their mother.
C
The bags of cookies is open on the table.
D
Either Hannah or Chloe are coming over.

Explanation

In “Milo’s puppies are still with their mother,” the subject “puppies” is plural, so it correctly takes the plural verb “are.” In A, “Chase and McKay” is plural and should take “are”; in C, “bags” is plural and should take “are.” In D, the verb should agree with the nearer subject, “Chloe,” so “is” is needed.
