Explanation:
Subject-verb agreement means that the subject and the verb in a sentence must agree in number. In sentence 1, the subject "books" is plural, but the verb "is" is singular, so there is a disagreement. In sentence 2, the subject "cattle" is plural, but the verb "is" is singular, so there is also a disagreement. In sentence 4, the subject "island" is singular, but the verb "are" is plural, so there is a disagreement.
In contrast, sentence 3 has a singular subject "collection" and a singular verb "is," so there is agreement between the subject and verb.
