Question

Choose the correct sentence in the following:

• A. Either of them have to come.
• B. Rickets are easy to cure.
• C. Every student has attended the meeting.
• D. Bread and Butter are his food.

Hint:

Every + Singular Noun + Singular Verb.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

Concept: A grammatically correct sentence must follow proper rules of subject-verb agreement.

Step 1: Analyze option (A). ``Either'' is singular. Correct sentence:
Therefore option (A) is incorrect.

Step 2: Analyze option (B). Rickets is treated as a singular disease. Correct sentence:
Hence option (B) is incorrect.

Step 3: Analyze option (D). Bread and butter as a single food item takes a singular verb. Correct sentence:
Therefore option (D) is incorrect.

Step 4: Analyze option (C). Every student is singular and correctly takes the singular auxiliary

has. Thus the sentence is grammatically correct.

Step 5: Conclusion. Hence, option (C) is correct.
