PSAT Writing and Language Question 102: Answer and Explanation
Question: 102
- A. NO CHANGE
- B. are
- C. has been
- D. was
Correct Answer: B
Explanation:
B
Verbs change in the answer choices, so this question tests consistency of verbs. A verb must be consistent with its subject and with the other verbs in the sentence. The subject of the verb is circumstances, which is plural. To be consistent, the underlined verb must also be plural. Eliminate (A), (C), and (D) because they are singular. The correct answer is (B).
